LANXESS Promotes Environmental Protection and CO2 Reduction Campaigns in Japan

LANXESS Japan conducts environmental campaigns in June, including its CO2 Reduction/Light-Down Campaign, promoting office blackouts and encouraging remote workers to conserve energy. Globally, LANXESS targets climate neutrality for Scopes 1 and 2 by 2040 and Scope 3 by 2050. As of 2025-end, LANXESS reduced Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 73% (vs 2004) and Scope 3 emissions by 62% (vs 2015). For water treatment, the company offers Lewatit MDS TP 108, a selective ion exchange resin demonstrating over 99.9% removal of PFAS in industrial wastewater trials. LANXESS is also launching Vulkanox 4060, a sustainable tire antioxidant candidate to replace 6PPD. To lower carbon footprints, it signed a 3-year green power contract with VERBUND in Europe, aiming for a 60k-ton CO2 reduction. LANXESS consistently ranks highly in international ESG indexes.
