Materials change our lives.

We will be the change.
For a world with a circular economy.
For a world with less CO2 emissions.
For a world with clean water and air for all.
For a world where more people can enjoy good health.

Materials will be the change.
The starting point for all things,
Materials have the power
To fundamentally change our everyday life.

We will take head-on, today and every day,
The challenge the world faces,
To balance development and sustainability.

And we will go beyond
Anything that the world can imagine.
With the passion and technology
In pursuit of the ultimate potential,
And with the power of the material
That is born from our endeavors.
