our sustainability commitment
In the energy-intensive industry of technical ceramics, we know our impact matters. To stay true to our guiding principles, we’re working to reduce waste, emissions, and water use while scaling our use of renewable energy. These goals are part of our plan to innovate and grow responsibly. We are proud of the metrics we achieved in 2024 and years prior and are excited by the progress we have made toward our 2030 Climate Vision: Minimize Waste, Maximize Impact.
Our 2030 Climate Vision focuses on four key areas, including waste diversion, Scope 1 and 2 emissions, water usage, and renewable energy. As part of our ongoing sustainability efforts, we will begin to develop a Scope 3 emissions plan to address our upstream and downstream activities.
