Goal30% of innovation projects to be aimed at reducing carbon footprint by 2030

Our process for R&D is three-pronged. First, we rely on input from our customers regarding the use of our current products, and what improvements can be made. This comes via our commercial teams and technical service teams and is ultimately curated in an ideation platform that exists within salesforce.com. In addition, new product concepts are continuously generated, refreshed and prioritized via ongoing meetings with an array of customers employing, in part, a formal New Product Blueprinting process.  Secondly, we tap into a variety of external partners and consortia. Solenis continuously seeks out and actively collaborates with industry and university partners on joint, open innovation programs. Thirdly, we align our efforts with key societal trends, or “megatrends,” where we believe we can have a significant impact by bringing our technological expertise to bear upon potential solutions. We also implement an “open innovation” concept where we encourage our scientists to bring forth new and unique ideas to the forefront.

Our Innovations

We create value for customers — and all our stakeholders — by aligning our everyday business practices with the highest legal, ethical and operating practices. From stewardship that fully manages each product’s life cycle to demonstrating social responsibility performance recognized by EcoVadis, Solenis is fully committed to operating principles that comply with applicable environmental guidelines and provide solutions that help customers meet or exceed their own sustainability goals.

Water & Resource Efficiency

Water free beverage conveyor lubrication, delivering up to 100% water reduction and reduced CO2 emissions verses traditional lubrication methods.

DryFormance combines water-free conveyor lubrication with packaging line engineering excellence to optimize conveyance and increase asset life. The reduction in water consumption, effluent load on wastewater treatment plants and strain on conveyor motors - which in turn reduces energy consumption - enhances the sustainable footprint of the packaging hall and reduces Total Cost of Ownership.
