Celanese and Baumit Partner to Provide Sustainable Solutions

Zacks
03-06

Celanese Corporation CE has collaborated with Baumit to provide the latter with binders for sustainable paint and plaster solutions using carbon capture and utilization (CCU) technology. These solutions are aimed at Baumit’s European customer base.

In the manufacturing of these binders, CE’s technology of converting waste emissions into chemical raw materials through its ECO-CC products is utilized to capture CO2 into a chemical building block that is used as a raw material. The CCU process will recycle CO2 into 100% of the binders used for facade plasters and paints, reducing the carbon footprint of Baumit products. CCU and fossil-based feedstocks are tracked through mass balance accounting. This method will help reduce carbon emissions and promote circular solutions.

This collaboration will enhance both of these companies’ commitment to sustainability by reducing the carbon footprint of Baumit’s render and paint products by more than 5,000 tons of CO2 emissions per year. This step is part of Baumit’s GO2morrow sustainability goal. CC technology has created such unique opportunities for a more circular economy.

The CE stock has lost 64.2% in the past year compared with the 22% decline of the industry.
