Environmental Management and Sustainability

Since 1881, NeoGraf Solutions has been at the forefront of graphite innovation- from lighting Cleveland’s Public Square with carbon arc lamps in 1879 to earning for cutting-edge graphite materials science. Today, we honor that legacy by setting the highest standards for sustainability while delivering advanced graphite solutions across aerospace, automotive, thermal management, and industrial applications. NeoGraf Solutions maintains a comprehensive Environmental Management System (EMS) designed to monitor and continuously improve our environmental performance, reducing the impacts of our operations, activities, products, and services. As an active community partner, we are dedicated to enhancing and supporting the well-being of the communities where we live and work.

• ISO 14001 Certified Since 2016
  Our robust environmental management system demonstrates NeoGraf’s unwavering commitment to strong environmental performance and accountability.

• Carbon Footprint Reduction
  We systematically track and aggressively reduce carbon emissions across Scopes 1, 2, and 3, directly supporting global climate action goals:
  • 68% reduction in Scope 1 & 2 emissions since 2018
  • Goal: Further 10% reduction by 2025
  • Target 2026: Identify Scope 3 initiatives to reduce our overall carbon footprint across the value chain
• Water Conservation
  Through innovative engineering solutions, we’ve achieved a 61% reduction in water usage since 2022 by conserving vital natural resources, safeguarding local ecosystems, and reducing both water sourcing and wastewater treatment impacts, regardless of production volume.

• Zero-Waste Achievement
  NeoGraf has achieved zero-waste status for our natural graphite facility, with all-natural graphite waste repurposed, resold, or reprocessed thus eliminating landfill disposal and maximizing resource efficiency.

• ISO 9001 Registered Since 2015
  Our quality management system emphasizes customer focus, internal audits, product realization, and continual improvement. We maintain Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) capabilities and are compliant with IATF (International Automotive Task Force) standards for the automotive industry.
• Responsible Sourcing & Compliance
  • RoHS & Conflict Minerals Free: Preventing hazardous substances and ensuring ethical sourcing
  • TSCA/PFAS Compliance: Only one NeoGraf product contains a PFAS (Fomblin* PFPE) fluorinated lubricant that is compliant with applicable environmental regulations

By embracing responsible sourcing, we reduce environmental risk while driving positive change across our supply chain and ensuring safe, transparent chemical management.

• Safety by Design
  NeoGraf is currently tracking toward two years accident-free as of September 2025.

NeoGraf Solutions is deeply committed to engaging with the local community and fostering green partnerships through meaningful action. We collaborate with Local Emergency Planning Committees from Cuyahoga County, Ohio, to help enhance emergency response preparedness for large-scale events, demonstrating our dedication to the safety and resilience of our region. The company supports the local community biannual tree giveaway program that enhances the urban green spaces. Our partnership with the city of Lakewood, Ohio combines hands-on volunteer support and financial contributions to strengthen local environmental projects and initiatives.

NeoGraf Solutions is committed to setting and achieving ambitious environmental targets for our suppliers, operations, and community impact

Let’s continue building a more sustainable future – together.
