A Clear Vision<br />
At Huntsman, we see a better<br />
world – one in which our<br />
innovations help reduce<br />
consumption of natural<br />
resources and improve the<br />
quality of life for people<br />
around the world.<br />
<strong>We</strong> see a work environment that<br />
encourages our associates to improve<br />
their processes to reduce resource<br />
consumption and turn waste streams<br />
into profitable products and, as a<br />
result, create and sustain jobs and<br />
enhance the bottom line.<br />
<strong>We</strong> see a company that not only<br />
boasts a strong balance sheet, but is<br />
also an active contributor to society<br />
and a champion for protecting our<br />
environment.<br />
<strong>We</strong>’re on a journey to create a more<br />
sustainable business. <strong>We</strong> have a<br />
long-term strategy to get us there<br />
called our 20:20 Vision (see page 5).<br />
It’s helping us bring into focus what<br />
needs to be done to create a more<br />
sustainable future for our associates,<br />
our company and the communities<br />
where we live and work.<br />
Throughout these pages, we’ve<br />
highlighted examples of how we’re<br />
fostering innovation to protect and<br />
enhance people, planet and profits.<br />
<strong>We</strong> believe, after reading this report,<br />
you’ll see a better world, too.<br />
