At Eastman, purpose means everything. We are a specialty materials
company, but merely making materials is not why our company exists. How we
make materials and how our products enhance the quality of life for all –
this is what unites the global Eastman team. At Eastman our innovation and
sustainability strategies
are integrated, and sustainability has become a business imperative. We
are focused on solving the world’s most significant problems by leveraging
our scale, integration and world class technology platforms. As our
strategic focus has also sharpened, we have now converged on three
critical impact areas where we have a responsibility to lead and provide
solutions – the global plastic waste crisis, climate change, and caring
for society. This collective sense of purpose at Eastman is why ESG is a
natural framework for our strategy, as it creates long-term value for all
our shareholders and has a positive impact on the global society. The more
we grow, the broader our impact becomes.
Today, trust and transparency are more important than ever. This governs
how we report on our culture through measuring advancements in our I&D
efforts, our operational excellence and how we manage a sustainable
product portfolio.
Across our company, we integrate ESG into everything we do to ensure
long-term business success.
