Sustainability

Sustainability is a core tenet of Cupron Performance Additives.

Our copper-based formulations provide eco- friendly alternatives to legacy chemical technology. The United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Principles of Green Chemistry guide Cupron’s technical team to minimize environmental impacts while maximizing product performance.

Sustainable Innovation

Non-Leaching Technology

Cupron’s non-leaching technology minimizes environmental pollution, as our localized-ion release strategically targets microbes and odor without seeping into the environment. Such technology provides an alternative to harmful biocides and man-made chemical agents.

Recycled Materials

Cupron sources 100% recycled copper materials for our Classic and Spectrum products. Such a choice ensures that Cupron products are green even before they enter our labs.

Nontoxic, Natural Chemical Alternative

Copper is an essential micronutrient for many living life forms. Our formulations are made from nontoxic solutions. Our technical team also avoids the use of harmful chemical solvents during product production.

Sustainable Development Goals

The United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a set of global goals which aim to create a just and sustainable future. Member states universally adopted the goals in 2015, and since then, many private organizations such as Cupron have joined the effort to build a better tomorrow. Cupron’s copper-based products serve as an alternative to harmful chemicals which pollute the environment and harm human health. Our durable technology not only prevents waste, yet is developed using eco-friendly practices. Cupron’s product application includes water treatment, irrigation, and sustainable building construction. The SDGs particularly pertinent to Cupron’s industry focus and technical development are listed below.

Industry, innovation an infrastructure

“Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrializationand foster innovation.”

sustainable cities and communities

“Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable.”

Responsible consumption and production

“Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns.”

Climate action

“Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts.”

Cupron adheres to these SDGs by practicing the following:

  • Waste Prevention
  • Less Hazardous Chemical Synthesis
  • Designing Safer Chemicals
  • Designing Higher Performing Chemicals
  • Designing Residual Functioning Chemicals
