  A different kind of day at Solvay

  Hi everyone, I’m Henrique, an employer branding trainee at Solvay, and today I’m  going to share a different kind of day in my life here. I recently had the chance to spend a few days in Brussels with my team at Solvay’s headquarters. Working in employer branding means telling the stories behind the work. Being there in person gave me a different perspective on that. Conversations are different when you’re sitting around the same table, exchanging ideas and learning from each other. Moments like this are a good reminder that global teams are built through real connections. Interested in starting your career at Solvay? Explore our internship opportunities around the world here!

  Making Communities Safer: Solvay’s 13‑Year Impact in Rayong

  10,000 helmets. 13 years. One commitment to safety. ⛑️ Solvay’s commitment doesn’t stop at our site’s entrance. It extends directly into the communities where we live and work! We’ve reached a major milestone through the Siam Solvay Foundation, delivering over 10,000 high-quality helmets to students across Rayong. In a region where motorcycles are involved in over 80% of road incidents and helmet use among youth is alarmingly low, we launched the "Safety Life, Wear Helmets to School" project in 2013 to protect our most vulnerable neighbors. For over a decade, this initiative has been a long-term mission to foster a culture of safety and support the "Rayong 100% Helmet Policy." This is about more than just giving away equipment. It is about consistent, local action to protect the next generation. The impact of our decade-long dedication is clear. In the areas where we are active, we have seen a consistent decline in road-related fatalities among participating students, even as traffic density in this industrial hub continues to grow. We believe that every child deserves a safe journey to school, and we are honored to play a role in making that a reality.

  Leading the Future of Sustainable Mobility at Solvay

  On the Italian shoreline, Solvay is writing a new chapter in Silica’s history. We have officially inaugurated Europe’s first bio-circular silica facility at our Livorno site - a major milestone in the transition to sustainable mobility. This new unit transforms rice husk ash (an agricultural byproduct) into highly dispersible silica (HDS) for energy-efficient tires. By skipping traditional, energy-intensive processes, we are: 📉 Reducing CO2 emissions by ~35% per ton. 🌾 Increasing recycled and renewable content for tire manufacturers by up to 15%. 🗺️Setting the blueprint for Solvay’s global circular silica strategy as we begin converting our sites worldwide to use ISCC® PLUS* certified materials. A tire is the only part of a car that touches the road. By evolving the chemistry behind it, we are helping the industry reach the target of 40% recycled and renewable content by 2030 and stay ahead of upcoming regulations, such as the EU's Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR). This is essential chemistry in motion.
