Sustainability
Sustainability means for INVENTYS achieving commercial success on the basis of solid business models in a way that is compatible with meeting the needs of employees and society and protecting the environment and natural resources.
Sustainability is an integral part of INVENTYS corporate strategies and not an add on. Very important are business ethics combined with the approach to meet social responsibilities.
This means conducting business by following global standards in an ethical manner and acting with integrity wherever.
Innovation
Innovation is one of the key pillars that INVENTYS is built on. Since its inception, Inventys has imbibed the culture of fostering innovation at workplace. The ecosystem is designed to encourage out-of-box thinking at all areas of work. This approach has enabled the scientific team to find creative ways if solving complex chemistry problems that are encountered in a typical project that is placed by its customers at Inventys. Our chemists are also trained in all aspects of route scouting, process development to give them the necessary background to look at every opportunity with an open mind and find ways of improving them. This approach and philosophy has enabled us to take up challenging projects and deliver them successful to our clients.
Circularity
Protecting human rights of the employees and treating them with dignity and respect as well as taking care of a safe and healthy working environment are essentials. Also, for the neighborhood it means INVENTYS operates in an environmentally responsible and efficient manner.
Protecting the environment is the other major task of sustainability. Here we focus on continuous improvement of environmental performance, by increasing the efficiency in using raw materials, energy and other resources as well as reducing waste. With a long-term view to 2030, we want to reduce consumption considerably to align with the broadly accepted greenhouse gas reduction targets.
INVENTYS is not only focusing on sustainability in their own battery limits but also on monitoring the whole value chain and work closely together with our business partners and suppliers.
Green Chemistry
Innovation & Green Chemistry are core elements of the INVENTYS pathway. It starts in R&D with concepts of maximizing atom economy. The researcher’s design processes such that the final molecule contains the maximum proportion of the starting materials. They try to minimize the use of blocking or protecting groups.
Aside, the use of feedstocks from renewable sources as raw materials is an important element.
Catalysis helps us to increase energy efficiency and to avoid stoichiometric reagents. From the environmental perspective, we try to select chemical pathways that reduce intrinsic hazards and the amount of hazardous chemicals.
Also, in utilities INVENTYS is following the philosophy of minimal impact. As an example, INVENTYS is using biomass instead of using coal to generate energy and steam. The biomass is derived from the agricultural waste for feeding our boilers.
Flow Chemistry
INVENTYS has excellent flow chemistry capabilities to handle extremely exothermic reactions and involving hazardous chemicals. Backed by an excellent infrastructure and a talented team, INVENTYS has successfully developed, optimized processes which are now commercial manufactured in our facilities.
A multi-disciplinary team of synthetic organic chemists, process chemists, analytical chemists and chemical engineers ensure that all the elements of flow processes are well understood to address the inherent challenges associated with batch processes. This team develops the appropriate reactor systems with necessary process controls like temperature, flow rate, mixing, pressure, etc based on the specific reaction needs of a process. They are also backed by a very experienced analytical team and automation / control system engineers who utilize the laboratory data to successfully design reactor systems for scalability and reproducibility. The elements of safety, waste management are also addressed in our integrated approach for developing processes based on the principles of flow chemistry.
Quality, Health, Safety, & Environment (QHSE)
At INVENTYS, we place equal importance on protecting the environment, safeguarding natural resources, and delivering exceptional quality across all facets of our operations. Our HSEQ policy is fully integrated into every industrial activity and commercial transaction we undertake.
We are deeply committed to:
Enhancing the quality of our products and services through continuous improvement.
Strengthening business processes to ensure long-term value creation.
Prioritizing the health and safety of our employees, customers, contractors, and the communities we operate in.
Embedding environmental stewardship at the heart of our decision-making and daily operations.
To support these commitments, we have implemented a comprehensive Management System aligned with international standards, which enables us to monitor, measure, and continuously improve our performance.
Key Environmental Sustainability Initiatives
We actively promote and implement initiatives that contribute to a greener future, including:
- Switch to biomass fuel since 2012 – More than 51% energy consumption from renewable sources with NETZERO carbon addition
- Tree Plantations -18,000 trees planted since 2008
- ISO 50001:2018 certification for energy management, guiding our efforts to optimize and reduce energy consumption
- Installation of Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) for reduced energy use
- Scrubber systems to reduce harmful emissions
- Energy-efficient lighting – LEDs, Motion Sensors, Ambient Light Detection Sensors, used to minimise energy usage
- Retrofit emergency backup systems to lower fuel consumption
Future Green Initiatives (3–5 Year Outlook)
We are planning and preparing for a more sustainable tomorrow through:
Expanded use of Variable Frequency Drives across operations
Installation of solar energy systems to harness renewable energy
Continued tree plantation drives inside and outside plant areas
Adoption of bio-briquettes in boilers and heating systems to further reduce carbon emissions
Carbon Footprint Report
At Inventys Research, sustainability is more than a principle—it’s the foundation of our vision for a better tomorrow. In an increasingly complex world, we believe true innovation lies at the intersection of science, environmental stewardship, and social responsibility.
Sustainability is embedded in everything we do—from pioneering green chemistry to minimizing waste and reducing our carbon footprint. These efforts reflect our belief that responsible innovation not only protects our planet, but also creates enduring value for our stakeholders and communities. Our team is dedicated to addressing global challenges—whether through advancing clean energy, improving resource efficiency, or developing sustainable materials. This carbon footprint report reflects our proactive approach to measuring and managing emissions across all three scopes—direct (Scope 1), indirect (Scope 2), and value chain emissions (Scope 3)—in line with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol. We have set clear reduction targets and are taking measurable steps to significantly lower our energy consumption and emissions intensity across sourcing, production, and distribution. Our long-term commitment is to align with internationally recognized GHG reduction benchmarks and contribute meaningfully to global climate goals, with a strategic outlook toward 2030 and beyond.
We’re proud of the strides we’ve made, but we know the journey is far from over. This report is not just a record—it’s a catalyst. It represents our ongoing commitment to accountability, impact, and leadership in sustainability. As we grow, sustainability will remain a central pillar of our strategy. This is not only our responsibility—it is our opportunity to lead, to collaborate, and to drive systemic change in building a resilient, low-carbon future.
Together, let’s lead with purpose—and build a sustainable tomorrow.
