SONGWON presents sustainability-driven progress at K 2025

At K 2025, Songwon Industrial Co., Ltd., one of the world’s largest manufacturers of polymer stabilizers and a leading global player in specialty chemicals, showcases a range of solutions that contribute to a greener, more sustainable world.

 Sustainability is an integral part of SONGWON's long-term strategy. 

Applying a sustainability-driven approach, SONGWON integrates innovation with life cycle management to develop solutions. The company’s comprehensive portfolio is continuously enhanced to meet growing market demands for eco-friendly technologies.

SONGWON applies a “pragmatic” approach to recycling challenges that improves the quality and durability of polyolefins and enables products to be reused or recycled more effectively while retaining their properties. Mechanical recycling is further supported by re-stabilization using SONGNOX binary blends, which allow recycled resins to gain a second service life.

At the same time, SONGWON is advancing its transition to renewable resources by incorporating sustainable raw materials wherever possible and continuously refining processes to reduce the reliance on non-renewables.

By improving the recyclability of polyolefin packaging, increasing the use of recycled materials and promoting best practices across product life cycles, SONGWON is helping to shape responsible production standards.

“Guided by our strategic roadmaps, we continue to enhance sustainability across SONGWON’s global operations. By leveraging our additive and specialty chemistry expertise, we develop products that extend product life and the value of materials to support our customers’ sustainability goals,” says Thomas Schmutz, Leader Technology, Regulatory Affairs & Sustainability at SONGWON.
