Products for the new age of sustainability

For the new age of sustainability, products must become more sustainable than ever - finite resources must be replaced by bio-based or circular alternatives in the medium and long term.

Solutions for climate protection 

Products that support climate protection reduce greenhouse gas emissions and halt climate change.  A second important group are products that assist with adaptations to climate change. They help to cope with the negative consequences or still expected climatic changes.

Battery immersion coolant for safe and fast charging

Rapid battery charging generates a lot of heat, which is problematic for heat-sensitive lithium-ion battery cells. Our Lubricant Additives business unit offers a range of cooling fluids that effectively dissipate excess heat during charging. They are non-hazardous, non-conductive and flame retardant, ensuring battery safety.

Solutions for a circular economy

A functioning circular economy requires more than alternative raw materials and environmentally sound recycling at the end of the life cycle. It also needs products that help ensure that the materials used can be used and reused for longer. When products can no longer be used at the end of their life cycle, they must be recycled in an environmentally compatible manner. Here, too, the right additives help to close loops.

Black pigments make recycling possible

Separating waste cleanly and producing pure recyclable materials is expensive. Difficulties in waste separation are the reason why the recycling rate for plastics is currently still far too low worldwide. The black pigment Bayferrox® 303T from the Inorganic Pigments business unit facilitates the recycling of plastic packaging by enabling separation in automated sorting plants.
