At Porelio, we are committed to a paradigm shift in the use of chemistry. For the people, and for nature – without exception. The most inspiring chemistry is the one we commit to the transformation of humankind and the preservation of our ecosystems. Our well-being must not depend on the destruction of the world. Therefore, we are working on the development of solutions to tackle the most pressing issues of our times: global warming, pollution, and disease. My role as the CTO is to lead the product development of the company based on strong principles, from the scientific to the societal point of view. We lead our R&D efforts following the 12 Principles of Green Chemistry to ensure we maximize the use of raw materials, eliminate the production of waste, and reduce the energy needs to create useful products. At the same time, we ensure the use of our inventions are used for good, always keeping in mind the dire consequences of not assessing the impact of old technologies and prolonging their phaseout. The transition of the chemical industry to a sustainable one is long, but we are in the midst of its transformation and we are committed to catalyze the process.
