Acting Responsibly
Evonik considers the safety, health and security of the public, its employees, contractors and customers and the protection of the environment to be of primary importance in the conduct of its business. We are committed to meeting all applicable laws, regulations, permits and internal requirements in the regions where we serve our customers. Continuous improvement in our environmental, safety, health and security performance are achieved through the commitment of every Evonik employee.
As a specialty chemicals company with a presence throughout the world, we understand that our long-term business success is dependent on more than our responsibility to customers and stakeholders, but on our responsibilities to society and the world around us.
This is further reflected with the increasing demand our customers, their customers and end consumers now have for products and services that demonstrate a good balance of economic, ecological and social factors. Our commitment to sustainability is rewarded: Evonik is a member of the Dow Jones Sustainability Indices World and Europe. In 2016, we were also recognized as one of the five most sustainable large German corporations (German Sustainability Prize).
