Supplying the world with methacrylate innovations to create the goods for a sustainable society.

What we do

Röhm will reduce the carbon footprint of its products and services, helping its customers to develop sustainable products and solutions. We also want to increase the value of our products during their utilization phase in the long term.

Why we do it

We are taking responsibility considering our Earth’s load limits and adhering to the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals.

How we do it

Sustainability is an integral part of Röhm’s business strategy worldwide. We’re addressing the five challenges of climate, resources, water, hazardous substances and chemical safety.

In these five fields of action, we focus on the implementation of our sustainability strategy:

Reducing the carbon footprint

We’ll only succeed in our efforts to permanently reduce the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere if everyone plays their part. We want to achieve this with suitable measures to increase energy efficiency and develop alternative energy sources.

Promoting the circular economy

Our primary goal with respect to ensuring efficient and economical use of our raw materials is still to use as few raw materials and as little water or energy as necessary and to avoid as much residue and waste as possible.

Efficiently using water resources

We use water as an energy source, cooling medium and auxiliary material in our production operations. Therefore, we will take additional measures to use water as a resource efficiently and to further reduce demand.

Minimizing pollutant emissions

In the future, we will rely even more on low-emission alternatives for use of our raw materials and further minimize our own pollutant emissions.

Ensuring chemical safety

We regularly assess the toxicological risk of the substances we process and produce to ensure chemical safety.
