*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.
