Philosophy behind Corporate Slogan

"Local Insight, Global Impact" reflects the ISK Group's strengths and aspirations: Commitment to continuing to create value through the power of chemistry, moving from ideas to innovation to impact.

The Group's business activities are deeply rooted in the communities and regions where it operates. This includes local engagement that addresses the specific needs of markets and regulatory environments across different countries, R&D that pushes the boundaries of chemistry, manufacturing that reliably delivers essential products to society, and facility operations conducted with a commitment to environmental preservation and safety. The ISK Group's ability to create value stems from grassroots efforts across various regions and sites. This work supports social values like bettering living environments and stabilizing food supply.

The new corporate slogan captures how the Group brings together the knowledge and insights gained from these diverse, local ways of life and channels them as a unified force into value that benefits society at large. It is a succinct expression of the Group's commitment to continually pushing forward in pursuit of a better future.

About Brand Symbol

As part of this brand refresh, the Company formally codified the long familiar ISK mark from its emblem as a brand symbol representing the values and identity of the entire Group.

The design draws on the image of a flag flying with energy and purpose -- evoking a workforce that is engaged and dynamic, and an organization with an active, confident presence in the world. The brand symbol will serve as a consistent visual representation of the ISK Group across all markets. Together with the new corporate slogan, it will be used to communicate the Group's direction and values across countries and regions in multi-dimensional ways.
