Protect the Earth
Contribute to the protection
of the environment,
by reducing energy consumption
by 20 to 50% as well as reducing gas
emissions during road construction.
This is made possible by
our CECABASE® RT additives.
Play a role in protecting our planet
by developing Surfactants that allow
our Industrial and Institutional Detergency

Peter Meyer | Molecular Sieves
Purity plus density: the latest Optisieve high density Molecular Sieves can accommodate
more compact adsorbers. The overall ecological balance is outstanding:
less regeneration gas, less waste, less frequent replacements. With desulfiding, dehydrating,
CO2 elimination, processing of radioactive waste, drying of bio-ethanol, manufacture
of "solar fridges" for emerging countries, CECA’s Molecular Sieves stand on every front
of eco-innovation.
Laura Guttierez | Activated Carbon
For Activated Carbon, there is life after life. Activated Carbon
will purify, filter, eliminate over a decade or more. When it is spent, it is recycled
into new Activated Carbon, for a new application: once used to eliminate solvents
for example, it will now trap fumes,… before eventually ending up as compost.
A fitting journey for a natural, inert raw material that can be regenerated in situ,
thousands of time.
Lifetime, waste reduction, reduction of emissions into the air: the overall balance
is more than positive.
Christoph Mielke | Phosphorus Derivatives
As part of its commercial approach, CECA includes waste treatment where possible.
The ultra pure phosphoric acid used to strip electronic chips is in fact recycled for metal
treatment. For some surface treatment acids (stripping of copper surfaces), CECA
purifies this acid so that it can be used again. The process is optimised therefore, and
the customer does not need to dispose of the product in a landfill.
For the chemical nickel-plating of metal parts and hard disks, CECA supplies ready-to-use
waterborne solutions. With energy savings and non-existent waste, this is economic and
ecological progress.
Caroline Trouillet | Purchasing/Transport
How to reduce mileage while improving service? How to drive responsibly, reduce
CO2 emissions, and pass on to our children a cleaner and more attractive planet?
By advancing our methods, our tools, and even our transport culture:
grouping orders, using the space in trucks more wisely, combining transport
flows, optimising routes. Regular audits assess our suppliers’ ecological
performance: newer trucks, training in economical driving, carbon disclosure,
observing safety rules. It is by rethinking the entire logistics chain that we can
make progress on the road to truly sustainable transport.
