In Germany, our sites contribute their expertise in materials science, chemistry and metallurgy to help develop solutions for clean mobility, circularity and a more resource-efficient future. Our actions are guided by Umicore’s global sustainability strategy, built around Net Zero, Zero Harm and Zero Inequality.
Our approach across the value chain
As a global materials technology and recycling group, Umicore develops materials and technologies that help address some of society’s most pressing challenges. For us, sustainability means combining business success with environmental responsibility and social progress.
Our sustainability strategy focuses on three key ambitions:
- Net Zero – reducing greenhouse gas emissions and supporting the energy transition
- Zero Harm – protecting people, the environment and natural resources
- Zero Inequality – fostering diversity, inclusion and responsible business practices
These principles guide our activities worldwide and form the foundation of our work.
