What does the practical application of safer chemistry look like? Maintaining performance while reducing the use of substances classified as carcinogenic, mutagenic, or reprotoxic (CMRs), and replacing them with safer alternatives. In 2025, we reduced these high-risk classifications (CMR Cat 1A/B) in our product portfolio by 22%, replacing them across 33 active formulations. While chemistry continues to evolve in demanding manufacturing environments, the proven process remains: • Low risk • Reliable • Consistent It reflects how we at Quaker Houghton approach innovation: • Practical • Measurable • Sustainable Built to support what we and our customers need across Social, Environmental, and Economic priorities.
