Kevali's vision of Chemistry for Life and Living means that we use Chemistry to better the lives of those around us and to' preserve the environment in which we conduct business and this spirit of promoting and protecting Life through chemistry is encapsulated in the following: The product and solutions that we offer are very forgiving to the environment and aim to reduce the energy and water footprint of our customers.
Some of Kevali's technology mean customers move from traditional cleaning chemicals that consume high levels of energy and water and result in waste chemicals going into waste water to solutions that use the cleaning power of salt and electricity with reduced water and energy consumption and the product that enters the waste water streams is neutral and does not result in waste water that needs further treatment
Kevali's strong focus on hygiene and sanitation also means Kevali holds the responsibility to ensure that products consumed by our customers consumer are of a safe and quality standard from a hygiene and sanitation point of view and that Life is protected. Another important aspect of Kevali's vision is also encapsulated in the way Lives that Kevali touches through their Corporate Social Investment project know as Women of Kevali.
This project assist township and rural area based women set up small business that specialize in the manufacturing of domestic hygiene and sanitation products. Each Hub that is set up contributes a total of 10 jobs in that specific township and in some townships Kevali aims to set up a footprint of a hub per 15 kilometer radius. The focus on women has been informed by the positive multiplier effect that women can bring to their communities when they do start small business.
