Sustainability Value Creation
In the shift from a linear to a circular economy model, resources are repurposed rather than discarded, emphasizing reuse, repair, and recycling to preserve value. Industries worldwide are intensifying efforts to enhance sustainability by reducing environmental impact throughout the product lifecycle. Kraton is dedicated to advancing the biobased and circular economy by offering innovative solutions that support customers in reducing reliance on fossil-based materials, increasing the use of recycled or renewable resources, and addressing carbon emissions, while enhancing product performance and extending product life.
We innovate to deliver sustainable solutions that help our customers reduce environmental impact during product manufacturing, processing, use, and end-of-life.
Leveraging the Product Life Cycle Approach
Kraton adopts a product life cycle approach that rethinks solutions for circularity. By prioritizing sustainability at every stage of the life cycle, we support customers in reducing environmental impact and enhancing the economic and social value of their products and processes. This integrated strategy supports efforts to lower product carbon footprints, advance sustainability objectives, and address emissions and health and safety considerations across the value chain.
Reducing the Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) of Raw Materials
Kraton provides an extensive range of biobased chemicals and high-performance SBCs that support customers in addressing upstream Scope 3.1 emissions and advancing sustainability across the product life cycle.
These efforts are supported by Kraton’s decarbonization initiatives, which provide customers with materials and data to support their own Scope 3 emissions management strategies.
