Today is the day! It’s exactly 140 years since Emma Staufer and Gottfried Plüss married and founded the company on the same day. On that day and every day since, our colleagues across the world have been #ThinkingofTomorrow, working out how to make life better for current and future generations using our passion for minerals and chemistry. We asked what Thinking of Tomorrow means to them and we think you’ll be able to relate to their answers. Tell us in the comments what Thinking of Tomorrow means to you…  

2024 is a big year for #Omya. Not only are we celebrating 140 years in business, but we are also celebrating 130 years in distribution! Working with Principals and customers across the world, our Global Distribution Services team supports all our markets with a comprehensive portfolio of specialty materials and other ingredients that complement our natural minerals. You can see in our video what this milestone means to our colleagues in distribution, although they’re already thinking of the next 130 years!

How many times have you touched #Omya products today? You might be surprised how often natural minerals such as calcium carbonate are used to improve the functionality and sustainability of everyday items such as paper, food, cosmetics and even building materials. When we are #ThinkingofTomorrow we are focusing on how to use natural minerals and chemistry to make life better. The benefits come #FromOmyaIntoOurLives.

#NEWS As part of our approach to #innovation, Omya works with other organizations including academia to develop new solutions to future challenges. We are in our fourth project with the University of Cincinnati, where students are working on how whole buildings can be recycled or reused. Yet another example of how #ThinkingofTomorrow makes life better. Find out more in our video.

At #Omya, we nurture talent throughout people’s careers, giving them the chance to learn and work abroad whenever we can.

Omya is #ThinkingofTomorrow in many ways, not least our commitment to sustainable production and carbon neutrality, reducing 50% of greenhouse gas emissions (scope 1 and 2) by 2030. Our ongoing investment in renewable power generation and energy efficient projects means we are increasingly able to replace fossil fuels with green fuels. This year we will have completed 48 solar power generation projects, producing enough electricity for 20,000 households. Find out more: https://lnkd.in/eXYxrnnt #Omya #Sustainability

At #Omya, we are committed to fostering long-term careers and providing growth opportunities for our employees. Jim Warnock's remarkable 35-year journey with the company exemplifies this commitment as he prepares to embark on a well-deserved retirement.   Jim's story with Omya began in his youth, starting as a technician in the 1990s. His dedication and the company's commitment to #careergrowth propelled Jim through the ranks, culminating in his role as Maintenance Manager at the Lucerne Valley plant in California.   As Jim closes this chapter, he reflects on the invaluable experience of building a #career grounded in his lifelong passion. Jim's dedication and contributions have been a testament to the spirit of Omya, and his legacy will undoubtedly inspire future generations within our company. #ThinkingofTomorrow
