As we commemorate International Women’s Day, colleagues across Sibelco from Asia-Pacific, Europe, and the Americas came together to reflect through coffee discussions, quizzes and 'thank you' walls filled with appreciation messages to show their support. We believe progress happens through everyday actions by listening, supporting one another, and creating spaces where everyone can grow and succeed. We are committed to working toward a more inclusive future. 💜

80% of global wastewater is still released into the environment without treatment which impacts the availability and quality of safe drinking water. In collaboration with wastewater treatment companies, Sibelco provides solutions that address this critical issue through the supply of filtration minerals. Find out more through our case study on wastewater treatment at SIAAP, the world’s second largest wastewater treatment plant: http://glassdoor.com/slink.htm?key=vQO2B #wastewater, #waterfiltration, #safewater
At Sibelco, we support innovative ‘cradle-to-cradle’ approaches of products and systems that are essentially waste free.

Sibelco is re-using green energy by-products for improved sustainability through the use of biomass ash in asphalt production. Biomass fly ash can replace up to 40% of limestone as a filler material in asphalt without any loss in performance. This reduces reliance on primary limestone stocks and provides a high quality sustainable application for the ash. A true win-win solution.

Water consumption grows at twice the rate of population growth and more than 300 million people globally rely on desalinated water. Learn more by reading our case study on pre-treatment solutions prior to desalination or join us at the Global Sustainable Technology & Innovation Conference in Brussels from tomorrow until Friday. http://glassdoor.com/slink.htm?key=vQJIb
Our Schansheide Quarry in Dessel, Belgium has been chosen as the site for an innovative floating solar panel investment. The company Floating PV will build five hectares of floating solar panels at the site, integrating innovative techniques such as solar tracking that allows the panels to rotate with the sun, an adjusting slope angle, double-sided panels and active cooling. Combined with the three wind turbines already in place, the floating solar panels will contribute to the renewable energy objectives of the Flemish region.
