Presentation Abstract

Choosing your way to sustainability

The Special Fluids division of TotalEnergies is a leader in the design, production and sale of high purity, biodegradable hydrocarbon solvents. For more than 30 years, TotalEnergies fluids provides a full range of highly dearomatized fluids like SOLANE range for adhesives or HYDROSEAL range for silicone sealants.

To fit with TotalEnergies commitment to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, the Fluids division had developed 100% biosourced solvents and plasticizers for sealants (silicon and SMP) and adhesives and neutral carbon solutions for its customers.

The presentation will be about the design of biosourced products and solutions by going through raw material R&D, life cycle assessments (LCA) and certifications that supports traceability and sustainability. By this approach, the purpose is to help the audience to understand their need between biosourced, sustainability and carbon footprint reduction solutions in order to choose the best solution for their or their own customer’s SDGs (sustainability development goals).
