​​​​​​​​Sustainability at Eastman​

Vision for A Better Circle

Eastman exists to enhance the quality of life in a material way. It’s our moral purpose — the driving force that gets us out of bed every morning to innovate new materials that will change the world. We are entering a decade of change, and the planet will have 10 billion people living on it in the blink of an eye. Sustainability is no longer an add-on to doing business — it is a business imperative.

That’s why we’ve made sustainability integral to our strategy, driven by innovation and focused always on people.

Eastman has the responsibility and opportunity to lead, joining others to address climate change, mainstream circularity as an economic model and build a more inclusive and equitable world. And it’s going to take all of us.

TOGETHER, WE CAN CREATE A BETTER CIRCLE.
