We are the name behind the high performance ingredients and technologies in some of the biggest, most successful brands in the world: creating, making and selling speciality chemicals that are relied on by industries and consumers everywhere.
Founded in 1925, since the beginning we have understood the important part that science plays in everyday life. We continually build on our heritage with sustainability-centred thinking, turning exciting, often groundbreaking ideas into practical solutions that our customers use to enhance their products.
Our success is driven by our focus on collaboration, proactive attitude and ability to think differently. We achieve this by encouraging our people to be curious and seek out creative ways to satisfy unmet needs. They work together as one global team, empowered to use their collective skill and knowledge to grow our business. We take pride in the synergistic relationships our people have with our customers and their ability to remain close to them through our local operations. Our work with our peers supports this shared approach, influencing advancements in scientific understanding by taking part in regulatory discussions and partnering with world leading universities.
