Corporate Sustainability Support

Ecomatters has had a cooperative relationship with AkzoNobel Sustainability in providing sustainability support since 2009; it was Max Sonnen’s first client. Over the years Ecomatters has supported AkzoNobel Sustainability in a wide variety of projects and activities. Key to our support is our flexibility to meet each project’s specific requirements and our ability to customise our approach.

Max Sonnen truly understands the sustainability field, the needs of the chemical sector and the business culture of the company. Over the years, he and his team have proven to be of continuing value to us in the way they actively anticipate the constantly evolving needs in the highly dynamic field of sustainability.

Since 2009, Ecomatters has supported AkzoNobel Sustainability in the design and implementation of various key projects. Throughout the years, Max Sonnen and his team have responded effectively to our specific needs. The long-lasting character of our working relationship and Ecomatters’ flexible approach allow for a very smooth and efficient execution of projects.

Custom & flexible sustainability support

AkzoNobel is committed to creating value from fewer resources and as such adopted the Planet Possible approach to sustainability. The organisation works with customers and suppliers to open up infinite possibilities in a finite world. The driving force behind the Planet Possible approach, AkzoNobel Sustainability manages the sustainability concepts and methodologies, and cooperates with the businesses to enable them to achieve their sustainability targets.

Over the years, Ecomatters has carried out projects for the business areas Decorative Paints, Performance Coatings, and Specialty Chemicals, and has cooperated with several business functions, including production, purchase, HSE, R&D, marketing, and sales. Covering the full sustainability spectrum, the projects have focused on People, Planet, and Profit, and where possible integrated the three. Additionally, we have supported the sustainability discussion at EU trade association level.
