Why is AC Biode joining this ceremony?

AC Biode took part in similar signing ceremonies last year in Tokyo and Berlin. This led to a pilot project that was conducted in December 2024. Due to the difficult situation in Ukraine it was conducted close to the Ukrainian border in Poland.

Participating in this year´s forum enabled us to present our cutting-edge chemical technology solutions, including our advanced catalysts for chemical recycling and efficient AC battery systems, which align with sustainable development goals (SDGs) and contribute to environmentally friendly industrial practices. Our expertise in turning waste into valuable resources and deploying eco-innovations positions us well to support Ukraine’s reconstruction with sustainable and circular economy solutions.

We applaud the joint statement by METI, UNIDO, and Ukrainian ministries, reflecting a strong collaboration framework to accelerate infrastructure modernization, sustainable agriculture, IT development, and environmental projects in Ukraine. AC Biode looks forward to exploring opportunities for partnership and contributing to Japan and Ukraine’s shared vision of resilient economic growth and environmental stewardship.

AC Biode remains optimistic about the situation in the Ukraine. We aim to fight corruption and inspire investment by deploying world-class technology for a sustainable future. Japan’s proactive role in fostering international cooperation is setting an example for sustainable development and aid. We believe these efforts will not only aid Ukraine’s recovery but also advance global climate action and sustainable industrial innovation.
