On the top of that\, the industry is under the strong environmental pressu re supported by numerous regulatory constraints and clients’ requests. D ecarbonization is at the heart of these concerns\, one of the key stakes b eing to turn the constraints into opportunities being able to finance the R&\;D and environ-mental upgrades or even improve the overall profitabi lity. To make it a success\, it is key to address the decarbonization not only from the regulatory standpoint\, but through a business-driven approa ch in support of the strategic decision making.\nSustainability : a practi cal approach\nSpeaker: Dr. Luigi MORA\, R&\;D Group Leader\, VINAVIL Sp A\n\nSustainability is one of the key topics for these and the forthcoming years. The EU Political path is steering the way to a more sustainable so ciety through legislation such as Eu Green Deal\, Taxonomy and Chemical Su stainability Reporting Directive etc... To ensure that disclosed data and information are transparent\, reliable and verifiable\, it is perceived th e need to comply with recognized standards and verification by a third par ty (super partes) that gives greater authority to one's statements or clai ms. VINAVIL will provide practical examples of its journey towards sustain ability and share its experience on the environmental pillar with ISCC PLU S certification\, a voluntary scheme to certify sustainable content (recyc led and bio-based materials) of its finished products. Then we will illust rate our voluntary communication by means of another instrument ‘’the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology’’ for measuring environmental impact indicators. An overview of the LCA technique will be provided\, as well as some examples. LCA may be then converted into Environmental Produc t Declaration to make the assessment transparent and certified. From a tec hnological point of view\, VINAVIL is implementing the energy management i n its main plant by improving cogenerator efficiency and installing new ph otovoltaic parks. Finally\, we will explore a possible comparison of envir onmental indicators between bio and fossil products.\nSustainable solution s to decarbonize paints\, coatings inks\nSpeaker: Tim-Frederic SLOOT\, Hea d of Sustainability – Coating Additives\, EVONIK Operations\n\nEVONIK Co ating Additives actively supports its customers to reduce the carbon footp rint of coatings and inks with new\, sustainable solutions: mass balancing and biosurfactants. TEGO® Wet 270 eCO and TEGO® Foamex 812 eCO are the first two products from the Coating Additives portfolio. They are based on the mass balance approach and allow for instant CO2 reduction in coating and ink formulations. Mass balance involves mixing virgin fossil and renew able or circular raw materials into existing systems and production proces ses. The renewable amount is then allocated mathematically to specific pro ducts. Customers receive the same\, well-known performance of the products while significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions. TEGO® Wet 570 Ter ra and TEGO® Wet 580 Terra are the first wetting agents based on biosurfa ctants to address the growing need for sustainable coating and ink formula tions. Produced by microorganisms in a unique fermentation process\, the b iosurfactants are derived from 100% renewables\, having a much lower produ ct carbon footprint than classical surfactants. They combine an excellent performance profile with great pigment and filler wetting and a very favou rable environmental profile with very low VOC levels and EU Ecolabel compl iance.\nFacilitating the adoption of mass balance via ISCC PLUS Certificat ion\nSpeaker: Manisha PANDEY\, Sustainability Manager\, SYNTHOMER plc\n\nT his session will cover the essential steps for implementing ISCC PLUS requ irements\, with focus on the mass balance approach. Additionally\, we will introduce the brand tags developed at SYNTHOMER to market ISCC PLUS certi fied products\, highlighting their role in promoting sustainability in a t ransparent and credible way.\nA hollistic toolbox to reduce carbon footpri nt of decorative paints\nSpeaker: Yohann TRANG\, Global Market Director – Construction and Architectural Coatings and Adhesives\, ARKEMA\n\nRedu cing carbon footprint of decorative paints has become a crucial objective and trend on the market\, to lower their environmental impact and mitigate the effects on global warming. By reducing VOC and harmful chemicals\, in door air quality and human health are improved. Governments and regulatory authorities are implementing stricter environmental regulations which can be addressed by lowering paints’ carbon footprint. Consumers are also b ecoming more environmentally conscious and prefer products that are sustai nable. Finally\, circular economy principles are supported\, where resourc es are used efficiently\, waste is minimized\, and products are designed t o have a longer lifespan. ARKEMA being strongly committed to a more sustai nable world\, we have developed and are constantly extending our toolbox t o tackle these challenges. Our solutions and roadmap will be highlighted d uring this presentation.\nConclusion\nPresentations\nSpeaker presentations available here.
