“Running a supply chain in today's ever-changing environment pushes you to keep changing and evolving. #Change is the only constant in our business, and it's part of Brenntag's DNA”, highlights Begoña Gómez González, our next #BrenntagPioneers candidate. Begoña joined Brenntag via an acquisition 24 years ago, thus understanding early on the importance of integrating technology, processes and, most important, people. Being SVP Supply Chain & Customer Service today, Begoña and her team take care of Brenntag Specialties’ supply chain processes and operations with ensuring the highest standards of safety and quality along the entire chain as her and her teams' main task: “We work with a large multidisciplinary team, touching on logistics, operations, customer service, procurement, engineering, site network optimization, quality assurance and regulatory affairs. We work to provide the best service to our business partners, evolving with the different markets and increasingly demanding requirements of the different stakeholders.” When it comes to values, Begoña shares: “I cannot image belonging to an organization with values different from mine, so for me the connection to the Brenntag values happens naturally. #Care ties everything together, ensuring that we relate with clarity, integrity, and a focus on safety and trust. Working in a global environment, cultural differences are a sensitive issue. So, clarity to create an environment of trust is something the whole team strives for daily.” About our 150-year anniversary in October, she adds this: “Throughout history, there have been many events that have continually challenged the stability of the business, but Brenntag has always had the resilience to navigate those turbulent waters. Personally, I feel proud to be a small piece of this big puzzle that we have been building for 150 years. At the same time, I feel a great responsibility to continue laying the foundations for another 150 years.” Learn more about our 150-year journey and discover more #BrenntagPioneers voices on our website: https://spkl.io/60484hHJ2 #Brenntag150 #SupplyChain

How can we minimize the risks associated with confined spaces during tank internal inspections using drones? This was the challenge our Iberia team tackled, and they created a great solution. The team developed a drone method for hazardous product inspections in accordance with Spanish legislation. Regular inspections of storage tanks at our chemical distribution sites are essential for safety and maintenance. With this new methodology, our teams have significantly increased safety during these periodic inspections. The benefits of this innovative approach are impressive: ▪️ Increased Safety: Reduces the risk of entering confined spaces. ▪️ Cost Savings: Cuts down on the costs associated with manual inspections. Congratulations to the Iberia team for setting best practices in operational safety and efficiency! #SustainabilityFriday #Safety #Drones #BestPractices

Our next #BrenntagPioneers candidate is Tomasz Kowalik. Based in Poland, where one of our production facilities for animal nutrition and pet food is located, he has been pivotal in shaping and expanding Brenntag Specialties Animal Nutrition offerings as an Application Development Manager for EMEA. Tomasz started his career at a small family-owned business and joined Brenntag via an acquisition, finding himself at a global corporation. Today, 28 years later, Tomasz combines his business development and sales skills with his application and R&D know-how. He is happy with the fact that his role as a “solution provider” fits in perfectly with the positioning and strategy of Brenntag Specialties. Corporate values are the basis for creating a respectful and collaborative work environment to him: “Principles, values, and guidelines are essential in a large organization. In my team, I encourage open communication about work, projects, and results. Addressing problems, misunderstandings and conflicts openly helps us find common solutions. Creating a positive work environment where team members feel valued and enjoy their roles is a top priority for me.” Tomasz appreciates the opportunities Brenntag offers for personal and professional growth. “If you have a convincing sales development idea and the will to take responsibility for it, Brenntag gives you the chance to implement your plans,” he says. He proudly highlights, “Today, we export our recognized solutions like our NEUBACID product group from Poland to over 40 countries, increasing our services and prioritizing quality, safety and sustainability. This has been a significant team achievement thanks to our experienced, trustworthy, and committed people.” Around Brenntag’s 150 years anniversary, he finds this important: “Providing the right solutions to the challenges of our customers and delivering them on time and high quality as well as competitive pricing is key. Our 150th anniversary is a wonderful occasion to celebrate our long-standing business partnerships and the journey we have shared.” Learn more about our 150th year anniversary here: https://spkl.io/60444CuGy #BusinessDevelopment #AnimalNutrition #Leadership #Clarity
