Market Innovation
Hexion is committed to developing
products and technologies that have
less impact on the environment. Our
chemists are constantly devising
new ways to generate savings in
energy, greenhouse gas emissions,
water or waste during production;
incorporating increased renewable
materials into product formulations;
and enhancing the recyclability and
safety of our products.
Because the entire supply chain matters, we
both seek out sustainability-oriented vendors
for our raw materials and continually work with
our customers to produce high-performance
end products with longer lifespans that are more
environmentally suitable. Our strategic work with
our valued supply partners is highlighted in several
notable products with sustainable attributes.
