Cabot operates in areas that are closely tied to the energy transition. Its materials are used in applications such as batteries and insulation, which places sustainability at the center of its business rather than at the margins.
David’s role involves navigating multiple layers of expectation. Investor scrutiny, regulatory requirements, and scientific accuracy all shape how sustainability is approached.

He focuses on ensuring that sustainability efforts are measurable, consistent, and aligned with real operational change.
