Sustainable Development Goals - Balchem

Balchem’s Priority SDGs

Balchem’s sustainability journey is one of continuous improvement.  We continue to actively engage our customers, shareholders, and employees for input on the key priorities for Balchem’s sustainability strategy. As part of our strategy we have identified priority Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) which Balchem is most focused on and able to make the biggest impact.  

In addition, we evaluated the alignment of our product line revenue with the UN SDGs which determined that more than 70% of our product line revenues directly support SDG 2 (zero hunger), SDG 3 (good health & well-being), and SDG 12 (responsible consumption and production).

Zero Hunger

We have positively impacted over 1.1 billion people with our health and nutrition-based products.

Good Health and Well-Being

“At our core, we are a health and nutrition company.”
— Ted Harris, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer
