Evonik was honored with the American Chemistry Council’s (ACC) 2023 Sustainability Leadership Award in the Product Safety, Innovation & Transparency category. The award recognizes ACC member companies for products, processes, or initiatives that promote the safe use of chemicals, transparency, informed sustainability decision-making, and innovation to reduce risk.

Evonik received the award for RHEANCE One, a special type of glycolipid biosurfactant derived from renewable raw materials. RHEANCE One is mild to the skin and designed for the formulation of sustainable beauty and personal care products such as facial cleansers, shampoos, shower gels, and baby wipes, among others. It is 100 percent biodegradable, environmentally friendly, and utilizes traceable supply chains.

“We are proud that the American Chemistry Council recognized Evonik with this Sustainability Leadership Award,” said Bonnie Tully, president North America region. “Sustainability is a key growth driver for Evonik and the cornerstone of our product portfolio, our investments, and our innovation management.”
