Our site in Fosses, France held an "Ascend Day" where employees spent time learning more about our broader business and celebrating the past two years of progress at the site. Congrats on this successful day, and thank you for all your work to build our business in Europe! #OneAscend
Great Ascend day organized today for our Fosses team in France which has been historically very strong with flame retardant compounds but which expands now its reach to other product type and end markets. A summer agreable weather was with us all day and we could stand outside on this special day for coming all together around different activities with the intention to bring our business closer to everyone. The transformation done within the last 2 years at the site is very impressive. It is well known that transformation happens through people and is only possible with the engagement of a strong and highly motivated team ! Congratulations to Fosses’s team! A big thank you to Yvan Goasmat and Anne Chantal Finot for the organization of the day!👏👏👏

Last year, our company passed milestones that never seemed possible when we began our sustainability journey. Our 2023 report is a testament to the hard work of our people, who have incorporated sustainability at Ascend as a mindset, not just a box to check.

A great story on how our Ascend Cares volunteers mentored young students and came away excited about our future. "When we come back from volunteering with the kids, we’re even more energized than they are. Interacting with and working with kids in the classroom enriches our lives," said Philip Jeszke, our global director of corporate strategic accounts. Fantastic work by members of our Detroit Automotive Center! #WeCare #givingback #STEMeducation
