LANXESS solutions: 

LANXESS is actively tackling climate change through its Climate Neutral 2040 initiative. This initiative outlines the company's goal to achieve climate neutrality by 2040, primarily by reducing its carbon emissions and investing in sustainable technologies. To further accomplish this goal, LANXESS launched the Net Zero Value Chain program, which focuses on creating a climate-neutral value chain by 2050.

Our climate targets are in line with the global effort to limit temperature rise to 1.5°C and provide a clear pathway for LANXESS to reduce emissions in line with scientific recommendations. This has been confirmed by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).

With products from the “Scopeblue” range, LANXESS offers a tangible solution, providing premium products made from renewable or circular raw materials, helping customers actively reduce their carbon footprint while advancing their sustainability efforts. Complementing this, LANXESS developed the Product Carbon Footprint Engine, a tool that enables customers to better understand the environmental impact of the materials they purchase from LANXESS, empowering them to make informed decisions to reduce emissions and meet sustainability goals.

LANXESS provides solutions to help customers lower emissions, offering sustainable products and technologies that reduce climate impact or support low-emission systems. Its specialty chemicals enhance the efficiency and durability of renewable energy technologies like wind and solar power. Additionally, LANXESS offers advanced solutions for carbon capture to efficiently capture and separate CO₂ from industrial emissions, supporting decarbonization efforts. LANXESS provides advanced solutions for e-mobility, designed to improve thermal stability, efficiency, and durability in electric vehicle systems. Products make thermal insulation safe with state-of-the-art flame retardant solutions. In regions facing increased water stress due to climate change, our liquid purification technologies make limited water resources more usable with efficient and climate-friendly treatment processes.

Overall, LANXESS is actively addressing climate protection by reducing emissions in its value chain, providing low-emission or climate-neutral solutions or technologies that enable climate protection and adaptation solutions to its customers.
