Strategy
Creating Value for Customers
Borealis’ We4Customers (We4C) Strategy puts our customers at the center of everything we do. We aim to become a focused polyolefin solutions provider dedicated to creating value for our customers. By offering innovative sustainability solutions, we advance our own sustainability efforts and positively impact the world. The foundation of our We4Customers Strategy is our purpose, “Re-inventing Essentials for Sustainable Living,” and its intent and spirit are shared across the OMV Group.
"We are committed to supporting our customers' sustainability ambitions by providing state-of-the-art solutions that also help them achieve their climate goals and drive efficiency."
Enabling Sustainability
We support the sustainability commitments of our customers by supplying solutions that help them reduce water usage and carbon intensity, and achieve their climate ambitions. To do so, we are also decarbonizing our own business, using suppliers who help reduce environmental impact, and supporting the design of products for recyclability.
Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions
We aim to reduce our Scope 1 and Scope 2* emissions to around 2 million metric tons by 2030. Our emissions reduction portfolio includes increased use of electricity from renewable sources throughout the decade and carbon capture projects that will come on stream in the second half of this decade.
Energy consumption
By 2030, 100% of the electricity used in our Polyolefins and Hydrocarbons operations will be of renewable origin. At the end of 2024, we reached 50% of that target.
"Thanks to our strong foundation, the power of innovation, and the agility and dedication of our people, we are well positioned to continue to play a strategic role for our customers and owners."
Delivering Innovative Solutions
The performance of our products is central to our proposition. We help our customers to enhance their offerings, supported by our innovation portfolio, including our proprietary Borstar® technology and new catalyst technologies. In 2024, we once again ranked as the top Austrian innovator in the European Patent Index 2024, building on a long history of ranking among the top innovators in the annual index.
