Sustainability
Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do at AkzoNobel. It’s vital for the future
success of our company, our society and our planet.
What does sustainability mean to AzkoNobel and how we commit it?
Our commitment to doing more with less.
When people ask us what sustainability to AzkoNobel, we tell them that our success
depends on it. We know only too well that our future hinges on our ability to do
radically more while using less.
More innovation, less traditional solutions; renewable energy and materials, less fossil-
based, more value chain focus, less introverted thinking. We are determined to turn
what is an abvious challenge into an opportunity and bring more value to our customers
and society in general.
This is by proving that the world being limited by resources doesn’t mean our ambition
and imagination has to be restricted as well. So we have adopted a strategy of radical
efficiency which involves us working with customers and suppliers to open up infinite
possibilities in a finite world. It’s our commitment to finding opportunities where these
don’t appear to be any.
We have a track record of sustainable innovations in the built environment Coatings
such as:-
Coating that can reduce surface heat gain from sunlight to help lower cooling costs.
Light reflective coatings for brighter rooms and energy savings from lower wattage
lighting.
More durable coatings for reduced maintenance and repaint cycles.
Laminated beam adhesive and application equipment technology for optimized material
use and bonding.
