Extending much gratitude to Karin Overbeck for her visit to Chem-Trend’s global headquarters in Howell, MI, USA! As Freudenberg’s Steering Committee Chairwoman for the company’s community outreach program, she is passionate about supporting communities and their efforts to initiate and sustain programs focused on education and the environment. Karin visited the Howell Nature Center during her time with us, one of the organizations who has received support from Freudenberg and Chem-Trend.

Creating greater sustainability is integral to our commitment to social responsibility here at Chem-Trend. As part of the Freudenberg Group, our global team strives to innovate solutions that minimize waste of materials and resources while reducing CO₂ emissions. It’s how we contribute to #MoveTheDate of Earth Overshoot Day. #releaseinnovation #innovatingtogether #sustainability
Today, humanity has used as many resources from Earth as the planet's ecosystem can renew during the entire year. Today is #EarthOvershootDay 2024. With our #sustainability initiatives around the world, we contribute to #MoveTheDate of Earth Overshoot Day. On our path to becoming a climate neutral company by 2045, one step we focus on is resource efficiency in the use of energy and materials. Another step is "green" electricity, which we purchase and generate ourselves. For example, we have long-term green power contracts with energy suppliers for solar power from one of Germany's largest photovoltaic parks in Tramm-Göthen and electricity from the "Nordsee-Ost" offshore wind farm. And just recently, the joint Chem-Trend and SurTec Group site in Valinhos, Brazil, inaugurated a photovoltaic system on their parking lot roof that covers 100% of the site's energy demand.
