Our company strategy

“We have built a strategy to grow our leading position in specialty chemicals and exceed our customers’ expectations by delivering innovative and sustainable solutions that answer society’s needs – today and in the future.” – Charlie Shaver, Chairman and CEO.

We will do that by increasing our focus on four attractive end markets: Agriculture, Buildings & Infrastructure, Cleaning goods and Personal care; and by expanding profitably in emerging markets, particularly China, Southeast Asia and India.

Our plans include growing in new applications and geographies through M&A and partnerships; further expanding our sustainable product offering; and, maximizing capacity utilization and flexibility of our manufacturing plants. We will transition from an ingredient supplier to solution provider as One Nouryon and continue to execute successfully on cost and productivity initiatives.
