Being An Inventor On Sustainability

ECOHANCE® Program

Evonik’s most innovative product range to enhance next generation alternative feedstock utilization.

To develop next generation sustainable solutions, the biggest levers are among alternative feedstocks, either from bio-mass based alternatives, production residues or side streams, meanwhile upscaling and using those feedstocks to achieve superior environmental and consumer performance.

Evonik global scientists are continuously working on ECOHANCE® program. By combining Evonik’s expertise in personal care and sustainability, ECOHANCE® is finally born to lead significant breakthrough on sustainable solution in the oleochemical world. It ensures the multiplication and enhancement of next generation alternative feedstock and takes the environment all along the value chain with additional benefits and performance.
