At Innospec, we believe in giving back to the communities where we live and work. Through our Innospec Cares program, employees are encouraged to dedicate one working day each year to volunteer with a local organisation.

In September, our Rio de Janeiro team supported Refettorio Gastromotiva, helping serve 70 meals to people facing social vulnerability. Refettorio’s mission is to fight hunger and waste and to strengthen its community through education and inclusion.

Patricia Albuquerque, Marketing Specialist based in Rio De Janeiro, shared:
“Stepping away from our corporate routine and immersing ourselves in such a human context made us reflect on our values, our social responsibility, and the importance of being closer to the community. Every act of solidarity has the power to transform – both those who receive it and those who give.”

We are proud of our teams worldwide who use their time and talents to make a positive impact beyond business.

Six of our Pleasanton-based colleagues recently used their annual Innospec Cares volunteering day to show appreciation for the teachers at Medio Creek Elementary school, by cooking and serving them lunch to thank them for their incredible work.

“Our volunteering efforts that day were a heartfelt expression of the appreciation we have for the invaluable contributions teachers make to our local community. The genuine joy and gratitude shown by the educators made the experience profoundly rewarding. It was a powerful reminder that even small gestures can reaffirm to educators how deeply valued they are.” Danny Torres, Driver Supervisor, Texas, US

At Innospec, we believe education changes lives. That’s why educational support and encouragement is one of the four pillars of our Innospec Cares program. By giving back to schools and teachers, we are also helping to inspire the future workforce of our industry.

We’d like to take this opportunity to thank every educator who goes above and beyond to shape bright futures.

We are pleased to share the publication of a new peer-reviewed study led by our Toxicology & Risk Assessment team in the Society of Toxicology (SOT)s journal Toxicological Sciences:
“Dermal absorption and metabolism of [14C]-C12 alkyl benzoate in Finsolv® TN in human skin in vitro”

The paper details an in vitro human skin penetration and metabolism study conducted using Finsolv® TN, an exclusive-use cosmetic ingredient from Innospec Performance Chemicals. This research highlights our continued commitment to advancing robust, science-based alternatives to animal testing, aligned with the EU REACH ‘last resort’ principle.

Congratulations to Jay Dawick and the wider Innospec toxicology and risk assessment team, along with our collaborators at Unilever, Charles River Laboratories, and Roper Toxicology Consulting Limited, for their outstanding contributions to deliver this impactful research.

At Innospec, we believe that businesses have a key role to play in protecting human rights in their supply chain. That’s why in 2024 we partnered with International Justice Mission (IJM) on a project to strengthen protection for palm oil workers in Indonesia.

In the first year of this partnership, IJM has already taken meaningful steps toward combating forced labor and labor trafficking, working closely with government agencies, labor unions, and civil society organizations.

The accomplishments of our first year in partnership with International Justice Mission (IJM) are just the beginning of our efforts to strengthen protections for palm plantation workers in Indonesia. Through this partnership we are helping to reshape the future of the palm oil industry, to ensure workers are protected, businesses uphold ethical labor practices, and forced labor is eliminated.
