Chemicals
Sustainable and future-proof chemical industry
The chemical industry plays a significant role in modern society, contributing to the production of numerous technologies and products that have revolutionised the way we live, work and interact with the world around us.
Transitioning to a fossil-free future
A growing middle class and consumer behavior in emerging markets are driving demand for chemicals, as there are more end-users buying consumer goods, and other products using chemicals or plastics. At the same time, the chemical industry is also one of the largest consumers of fossil fuels, accounting for approximately 11% of the global demand for natural gas and oil (From energy to chemicals – Analysis - IEA). This heavy reliance on non-renewable resources not only creates environmental challenges but also poses risks to the long-term sustainability of the chemical industry itself. Thus, there is a growing need for the chemical sector to transition into a fossil-free and environmentally friendly approach. Companies that adopt fossil-free processes and products can gain a competitive advantage by reducing their carbon footprint and improving their environmental performance. The future of the chemical industry comes with opportunities which can get your company one step ahead!
AFRY is driving sustainability and circular solutions
The bio-based industry transition sets the frame for fossil-based materials replacement with bio-based materials. Climate change, environmental concerns, an overall need for resource efficiency and scarcity of natural resources drive society and businesses to look for renewable, non-fossil raw materials and circular solutions.
Biochemicals, biofuels, bioplastics, novel biomaterials and textiles, wood products, pulp and all grades of paper and board are some products by the bio-based industry clients we globally serve. A circular economy is the key to a low-carbon economy and offers opportunities for the chemical industry to develop profitable products and services.
