About
Covestro is a world-leading supplier of high-tech polymer materials: innovative, sustainable and diverse, and used in many areas of daily life. Innovation and sustainability are the driving forces behind the continuous development of our products, processes and facilities. In line with our vision “To make the world a brighter place”, and along with our commitment to becoming fully circular, we develop sustainable solutions to the greatest challenges of our age: climate change, resource depletion, urban expansion, population growth and the resulting increase in awareness of environmental issues. These will inevitably lead to a higher demand for renewable energies, alternative resources, energy-efficient transportation, and sustainable, affordable housing. Covestro aims to meet this demand with long-lasting, light, environmentally friendly and cost-effective materials, which in many cases are suitable replacements for conventional materials such as steel and glass. We help make cars lighter so they save fuel. Our insulation systems protect buildings against the heat and cold to reduce energy consumption. In entertainment electronics, our products support functionality, safety and sleek design. The backbone of our organization’s success is our 16,500 employees, who work at around 33 sites across the globe. Thanks to the sound setup of our company and its innovative power, we have achieved a reliable course of growth and consolidated our standing in the global markets. In 2020, Covestro’s Group sales were EUR 10.7 billion.
