We are on a mission to transform
the chemical industry.

Chemicals are the building blocks of nearly everything we touch and use, with more than 95% of all manufactured goods touched by chemical products.

Yet this essential industry also leaves a big footprint, responsible for 6% of global greenhouse gas emissions from energy use and direct operations.

To make the massive reductions and changes needed to align with a net-zero emissions and circular future, we need collaboration.

That’s why we started the Global Impact Coalition, a CEO-led organization that brings together some of the industry’s leading chemical companies to co-create new business models, develop proof-of-concept pilots and R&D hubs to accelerate the transformation to a low-carbon and circular future.

Our partners

At the Global Impact Coalition, we love collaboration. We are grateful to our incredible ecosystem of global partners who help us expand our reach, innovate and amplify our positive impact.
