SYENSQO

At Syensqo, we know that sustainability is not just about protecting the environment, it is equally about protecting people. That’s why Better Life is one of our key sustainability pillars, which centers on safeguarding the wellbeing of our team, our stakeholders, and the communities we work with.

Besides supporting our employees, we also strive to make a difference for our local communities by building strong and mutually beneficial relationships and implementing initiatives that benefit both people and the planet. One such initiative encourages employees to get involved in societal actions or projects that serve local communities and impact at least one of the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals. In the past, this has sparked efforts such as the Stop Office Waste program and GirlS, (Girls Leading in Science).

Creating a Better Life also extends itself to how we do business. We recognize our efforts have a ripple effect beyond our immediate operations, including suppliers, distributors and consumers. We prioritize responsible and sustainable sourcing, ethical production, and transparent communication to create a positive impact that resonates throughout our value chain. A key example is our involvement in the Sustainable Guar Initiative (SGI), a program we set up alongside L’Oréal and international NGO TechnoServe to empower guar farmers in Bikaner, India with tools and training to cultivate their crops. The initiative aims to improve the livelihood of guar bean farmers by increasing guar yield and revenues, mitigate climate change through sustainable agricultural practices, empower women in the communities, and enable more transparency in the supply chain.
