Mankind is facing several sustainability challenges. Firstly, there are still important discrepancies in human development across the globe. Our products and services are critical to customers that supply solutions and materials essential to human development. For example, steel and construction are key for infrastructure and household equipment. Glass, water treatment, clean air, agriculture, base metals refinement or battery production are other important areas of human development that would not exist without our products and services.
Another sustainability challenge is the impact of greenhouse gases emissions on the climate, with CO2 being the main culprit.
At Carmeuse, we are targeting carbon-neutral products. We are also developing business opportunities for lime to capture CO2. Sustainability also involves looking at energy use, biodiversity and the wellbeing of our employees. That is how, with our products and services, we contribute to a better world.
To fulfill our mission of contributing to a better world, we believe in our people, technology, and sustainable management.
Therefore, we continuously develop our teams and promote the following behaviors: Collaboration, Passion, Ownership and Honest Feedback. This guides us when we interact with customers, colleagues, partners, and stakeholders. As we care about our people, we have set health and safety at the top of our agenda, and we work daily to promote a safety culture in all our locations.
Our sustainability mindset also drives us to support our nearby communities according to their local context.
Technological innovation, supported by digital acceleration, is a key lever of the decarbonization challenge. This is why we continuously invest in new solutions that will help reduce CO2 emissions and support our objective of reaching net zero by 2050.
As we take sustainability to heart and act with passion and responsibility, our ambition is to be a champion of environmental stewardship.
