Clariant is committed to fostering the transition to a sustainable bioeconomy and has a growing share of biobased products in its portfolio.
Maximize green carbon content
Our new VITA range of fully segregated, carbon reducing and 100% bio-based polyglycols and surfactants set a new standard in sustainable products.

100% bio-based surfactant

Fully segregated material flows

Same performance as fossil-based analogue

Non-food competing (using a mass-balance approach*)

Lower CO₂e footprint

Eliminates fossil carbon emissions
*Clariant's calculation-based monitoring system ensures an equivalent amount of sugar cane molasse is used as feedstock for bio-based products, even though the actual production may involve a mix of feedstocks from different sources.
VITA is our green carbon solution for helping to restore the earth's carbon balance.
When comparing the value chain of conventional surfactants and those of our VITA range, it’s easy to see the difference. Instead of starting with crude oil and ending up with 100% fossil carbon, VITA starts from plants and leads to 100% renewable-based results.
