Innovative solutions for a sustainable world
In a fast-changing world characterized by global warming, a rising world population and urbanization, the emergence of new technologies, the increasing difficulty in accessing energy and safe drinking water, and the growing scarcity of certain resources, manufacturing companies like Arkema must constantly innovate and adapt their product range to offer solutions addressing these challenges.
To address these major changes, the Group has structured its innovation strategy around six innovation platforms, that are delivering usable, innovative and environmentally friendly solutions in such areas as bio‑based products, new energies, water management, electronics solutions, lightweight materials and design, and home efficiency and insulation.
These six platforms respond perfectly to six of the 17 UN’s sustainable development goal, entered into force on 1 January 2016.
