LANXESS Sustainable Product Portfolio: Driving Climate-Neutral Innovation by 2050

Commitment to Climate-Neutral Products and Circularity

LANXESS is dedicated to transforming its entire product portfolio to achieve climate neutrality by 2050. This ambitious goal underpins their corporate strategy and is central to their innovation, product development, and supply chain management. The company emphasizes:

• Climate-Neutral and Circular Products: Systematically reducing product carbon footprints (PCF) while shifting towards renewable raw materials and circular processes.
• Digitization and Transparency: Implementing the proprietary Product Carbon Footprint Engine to measure and minimize emissions across product lifecycles.
• Scopeblue Program: Highlighting “Sustainability Stars” — products with notably reduced emissions and those that use circular raw materials.

Innovation for a Sustainable Future

LANXESS’s sustainable innovations focus on:

• Developing advanced materials that support renewable energy and resource efficiency.
• Enhancing product lifespans and recyclability to foster a circular economy.
• Creating energy-efficient industrial and chemical solutions that do not compromise performance or safety.

These innovations enable industries to transition toward sustainability while complying with stringent safety and environmental standards.

Eliminating Critical Substances for Safer Products

A key pillar of LANXESS’s sustainability approach is the systematic elimination of critical and potentially harmful substances from consumer products. Through rigorous evaluation and proactive innovation, the company aims to:

• Exceed regulatory requirements in product safety.
• Support a non-toxic, circular economy.
• Enhance environmental compatibility and protect human health.

Tools and Monitoring for Responsible Product Stewardship

The LANXESS Product Sustainability Monitor tracks the environmental impact of products and supports continuous improvement. Life cycle assessments and mass balancing strategies further guide the company’s responsible product innovation and supply chain transparency.
