ESTAINIUM is a non-profit, internationally active association with a focus on the cross-sector decarbonisation of industry along the supply chain. In a dynamic and committed environment, we are constantly striving to push the boundaries of sustainability and drive the energy transition forward. We work in a high professional environment on sustainability issues together with our members, companies and universities as well as government institutions.

The members
