supply chain."

For example, Symrise has upgraded its highly efficient manufacturing method
for synthetic menthol, reducing its carbon footprint by 125,000 tons per
year. In addition, Symrise obtains many of its high-volume products from
so-called side streams of other industries, such as orange oil from orange
peels, saving resources and therefore emissions and costs. Finally, the
company sources the majority of its raw materials, such as onions, locally,
reducing transportation costs and emissions considerably.
