Chemistry is all around us. From the clothes we wear and the mobile phones and laptops we use every day, to the cars we drive and the insulation in our buildings; chemistry is a key part of our lives. Making society more sustainable requires us to make chemistry more sustainable – ensuring chemicals and products are produced in a more energy-efficient way, generate less waste, and result in recyclable products.
Set-up in 2020 and located in Antwerp, Belgium, BlueChem is an incubator for sustainable chemistry businesses. It helps start-ups and scale-ups work towards addressing important societal challenges, such as how to reduce CO2 emissions or increase recycling.
