At the Capital Markets Day held in September, Arkema once again clarified its vision of “innovating materials to build a sustainable world”. Entering a new stage of development, the Group will be guided by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and fulfill the three major commitments of corporate social responsibility in all aspects of production and operations, namely providing innovation-driven sustainable solutions, responsible manufacturing manage business activities as a business owner, establish open dialogue and close relationships with stakeholders, and promote sustainable development.

Building a sustainable future with innovative materials

Arkema takes “leading sustainable growth” as its core goal in the next stage of development, focusing on the field of high-performance specialty materials to achieve organic growth. Of the patents applied for by the Group, 90%
All of the above are closely linked to sustainable development.

Driven by domestic carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals, the development of clean energy such as lithium batteries, wind power, photovoltaics, and hydrogen energy continues to accelerate, and more innovative businesses and technologies are also emerging. In this area, Arkema is also constantly pioneering and innovating to provide local and Asian markets with high-performance materials and sustainable products that meet customer needs.

For example, Arkema’s flagship product in its thermoplastic matrix range – Elium®
Liquid resin, compared to current processes based on epoxy resin composite materials, this product can be cured at room temperature and has a short curing time. It has significant industrial and energy benefits and can be suitable for manufacturing a variety of composite parts. Not long ago, using Arkema Elium®
The nearly 100-meter-level thermoplastic composite wind turbine blade made of resin has successfully rolled off the production line in China. This achievement not only breaks the global record for the length of thermoplastic composite wind turbine blades, but is also an important progress in the use of new green materials in the field of wind turbine blades, marking Arkema takes another step forward in promoting local circular economy and sustainable development.

Strengthening decarbonization measures to promote “carbon neutrality”

As a responsible manufacturing company, while pioneering innovation, Arkema is also committed to protecting the climate and reducing the carbon footprint of its production and operations. In recent years, the Group has repeatedly refreshed its climate plan, strengthened decarbonization measures, and moved towards the 2050 net-zero carbon goal.

By 2030, the Group aims to achieve an ambitious climate plan: “Scope 1” and “Scope 2” greenhouse gas emissions will be reduced by 48.5% compared with 2019, and “Scope 3” emissions will be reduced by 54% compared with 2019. The plan It has also been awarded the SBTi by the international organization
(Science Based Targets Initiative) 1.5°C certification. To support this decarbonization plan, the Group expects to invest 400 million euros by 2030 to continuously improve production processes, achieve energy decarbonization, and adopt specific policies to optimize energy efficiency.

In China, Arkema is also actively exploring ways to achieve green and low-carbon transformation, optimizing production operations and achieving carbon reduction goals by participating in domestic green electricity transactions and optimizing production equipment. Driven by the wave of industrial digitalization, the Changshu base also uses the digital technology of Advanced Process Control (APC) to achieve cost reduction, increase efficiency, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions while ensuring the safety and reliability of production equipment operations. In addition, at the employee level, the company also organized CLIMATE
Activities such as FRESK Climate Puzzle, World Environment Day, and voluntary tree planting popularize the basic knowledge of sustainable development for grassroots employees and fully mobilize their enthusiasm for participating in decarbonization actions.

In-depth development of corporate social responsibility projects

Since 2016, Arkema has also been actively involved in different social activities and carried out corporate social responsibility activities. In March this year, with the further sublimation of local social activities, Arkema upgraded its corporate social responsibility brand. From then on, the company will focus on the new theme of “green life, achieve a sustainable future”, more actively and in-depth carry out various local corporate social responsibility work, and mobilize more stakeholders to participate.

As a long-term corporate social responsibility project, the “Green Innovation Classroom” has officially entered its eighth year, with footprints in Zhangjiagang City, Jiangsu Province, Hengshui City, Hebei Province, Mengzi City, Honghe Hanizu Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province, Rongjiang County, Guizhou Province, etc. land. This year, under the call of a new theme, Arkema returned to school and came to Luxi County, Yunnan Province, where it also added five “green innovation classrooms”. In the future, as a long-term��In addition to supplementing educational activities, Arkema’s volunteers will regularly conduct rich and diverse interactive courses based on the characteristics of each school, focusing on themes such as innovation, safety, and environmental protection, to deliver sustainable development knowledge to students.

In the future, Arkema will continue to move forward, continue to deepen its corporate social responsibility in China, and contribute its share to China’s sustainable development.
