Reducing carbon emissions at Orbia A key commitment for Oriba is the reduction of its carbon footprint .
“ We are committed to achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2050 ,” says DeRuyck “ We are striving to achieve this by setting science-based targets and making investments to accelerate decarbonisation . “
Orbia is contributing to the transition toward a low carbon economy through both decarbonisation operations and by offering products with lower carbon footprints .
Examples of how our products contribute to lower carbon footprints include Wavin ’ s innovative solutions for temperature control and ventilation which reduce the carbon footprint of residential buildings .
Last year Vestolit also reduced the carbon footprint of its portfolio by developing a PVC that is free from fossil fuels .
Another great example is Orbia ’ s development of the world ’ s first bicycle path , made of 90 % postconsumer recycled plastics .
