Sales by division

Our organic and inorganic basic chemicals are used to supply raw materials to our value-adding chains and are marketed to our external customers. Cost leadership is achieved thanks to integrated production facilities, our Research Verbund and modern large-scale plants. We enhance our portfolio of higher-value products through innovations and acquisitions. In addition, we market a broad range of organic and inorganic specialties, in particular catalysts and electronic chemicals.
