Sustainability
Our 2030 commitments for measurable materials progress
Arkema treats sustainability as a specification discipline. Customers need lower-carbon options, but they also need the data trail, product performance, and regional documentation required to use those options with confidence.
Target dashboard
The table below presents the kind of evidence customers increasingly request during supplier qualification. It separates baseline, current status, future goal, and method so sustainability claims can be discussed alongside quality, cost, and regulatory constraints.
| Target | 2019 Baseline | 2024 Status | 2030 Goal | Methodology |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Scope 1+2 emissions | Indexed at 100 | Validated reduction pathway | 60% reduction | Energy efficiency, renewable power, process optimization |
| Scope 3 engagement | Supplier mapping started | Priority raw materials ranked | Major suppliers covered | Supplier data requests and mass-balance models |
| Recycled raw materials | Limited specialty streams | Qualified projects in coatings and polymers | 30% circular or bio-attributed feedstock | Traceable feedstock and chain-of-custody review |
| Water reuse | Site-by-site programs | High-risk facilities prioritized | Improved reuse intensity | Closed-loop cooling, treatment optimization, monitoring |

Third-party verification mindset
Chemical sustainability claims must survive scrutiny from procurement, legal, EHS, and customer sustainability teams. Arkema's approach emphasizes recognized frameworks, documented assumptions, and product-level discussion instead of broad claims. Where customers need deeper evidence, technical teams can help identify the right report, chain-of-custody language, SDS statement, or regulatory document. This matters for coating and polymer buyers because a lower-carbon material still has to meet viscosity, adhesion, durability, thermal, and compliance requirements before it can enter production.

Methodology appendix
Every customer program has a different documentation threshold. A packaging converter may need food-contact statements and recycled-content language. An automotive supplier may need change-control discipline and material safety updates. An electronics manufacturer may need ionic contamination, particle, and lot traceability notes. Arkema keeps the methodology conversation close to the product conversation so claims do not become detached from real application performance.
