Did you know that batteries need electrolytes to function? Electrolytes are the “blood” of the battery, touching every part of a battery cell and allowing it to hold and release charge. Customized electrolyte formulations allow batteries to charge faster, last longer and improve safety. Orbia is one of the only U.S. companies providing this solution.

Advancing a circular economy requires integrating sustainable design principles into all stages of our products’ life cycles. We have been working to increase the use of recycled raw material across our portfolio and have made significant progress in our Building & Infrastructure business Wavin. In 2024, the business added recycled content into several products including: ● Q-Bic Plus using low-carbon 100% recycled content, sold in various European countries. ● Aquacell Tree tanks using low-carbon 100% recycled content, with first sales in Latin America. ● Wafix red PP sewage pipes using low-carbon 70% recycled content, sold in Sweden. ● Sewage pipes using low-carbon PVC and 50% recycled content, sold in Poland. ● Sanitary PVC pipes using 20% recycled PVC, sold in Colombia.

Orbia Precision Agriculture’s Culiacán plant in Mexico—considered the country’s largest agricultural plastics recycling facility— processed over 2,700 tons of plastic during 2024 using sustainable technology such as a water recirculation system for processing and photovoltaic energy. The recycled plastic generated at this plant is added to the 130,000 tons that Orbia’s Precision Agriculture business Netafim has incorporated into its products worldwide in recent years.

Trees that cool the streets; roots that don’t crack the sidewalks: In Hasselt, Belgium, Orbia is helping the city grow greener — smarter. Nearly 100 trees were planted using our Wavin TreeTank system, designed to deliver rainwater efficiently and protect infrastructure as trees mature. The result? Healthier trees, better drainage, cooler neighborhoods and cleaner air. #WeAreOrbia #Hasselt #GreenCities #ClimateResilience

The #1 bottleneck in AI isn’t compute—it’s cooling. Typical racks draw ~8–12 kW, while Blackwell-class systems can push ~120 kW in a single rack—nearly 10× more. Air cooling alone hits a ceiling around 20–30 kW/rack and cooling can consume up to 40% of a data center’s electricity bill. While the industry debates liquid vs. air, the real choke point is the microscopic gap between the GPU and the cold plate. NovoLINC addresses exactly that with a compliant, next-generation thermal interface that maintains full contact under warpage, dramatically lowers contact resistance and delivers up to 10× better heat transfer than standard materials. The result: 9–18°F (~5–10°C) cooler junction temperatures, higher utilization and lower energy per compute. In this Expand Your Horizons episode, Orbia’s VP of Innovation & Ventures, Shai Albaranes, speaks with Dr. Ning Li, NovoLINC’s co-founder and CEO, about what this unlocks for performance, reliability and total cost of ownership—and how leading operators are moving through qualification. If you care about hotter chips, denser racks and greener data centers, this one’s worth a watch.
