Innovation that enables positive environmental impact

Improving lives through smart science requires more than just pockets of innovative technology, it requires an innovative growth mindset at the heart of any business. At Croda, innovation is central to everything we do. We create novel ingredients; we build pioneering collaborations and partnerships that unlock hidden potential; and we encourage our teams to explore and challenge in the pursuit of better outcomes for society; for customers; and for Croda itself. All our innovation is geared towards one thing – moving beyond the boundaries of existing thinking, technology, and expertise. Remaining confined to what we know and can do today, limits our people’s ability to improve people’s lives.

The most valuable resource we have for achieving this outcome is our people, with this in mind, we want to showcase some of the extraordinary innovative work they are delivering to demonstrate their technical brilliance; ability to knock down barriers; and phenomenal desire to constantly push beyond existing boundaries.

‘Beyond Boundaries’ therefore offers a range of new content, in multiple forms, covering a multitude of topics, all focused on innovation at Croda. From taking inspiration from the food and drinks sector to cut energy requirements by almost 100%; to improving yields from tomato harvests by simply looking at batches of seeds, our people and their work are enabling the industries we serve to achieve more and play a major role in improving lives around the world through smart science. We will also cover the positive environmental effects and impacts of how our innovative people are helping Croda to become more sustainable.
