Süd-Chemie and Clariant: Jointly Stronger
The integration of Süd-Chemie AG is progressing as planned. With the successful squeeze-out in December 2011 and the registration of the domination agreement with the Munich Commercial Register in January 2012, the fully fledged integration into one organization can be implemented.
As of July 2, 2012, Süd-Chemie AG will be merged into Clariant Produkte (Deutschland) GmbH. All Süd-Chemie AG service activities (e.g. Finance, HR, IT, Legal) as well as the European sales processes will be integrated into Clariant SE by July 2, 2012. With the merger of Süd-Chemie AG, all other Süd-Chemie AG activities such as production and other support functions will be transferred into Clariant Produkte (Deutschland) GmbH. Sales activities outside Europe will be taken over by Clariant International AG.
The functional and the regional integration is also progressing as planned. The timely execution of the developed integration plans continues to be the main focus in 2012, as well as to deliver the targeted financial benefits. Based on current insights and integration experience, the anticipated CHF 90-115 million EBITDA improvements can still be confirmed. The functional integration is expected to be completed in 2013.
Clariant is an internationally active specialty chemical company, based in Muttenz near Basel. The group owns over 100 companies worldwide and employed 22 149 employees on December 31, 2011. In the financial year 2011, Clariant produced a turnover of CHF 7.4 billion. Clariant is divided into eleven business units: Additives; Catalysis & Energy; Emulsions, Detergents & Intermediates; Functional Materials; Industrial & Consumer Specialties; Leather Services; Masterbatches; Oil & Mining Services; Paper Specialties; Pigments; Textile Chemicals. Clariant focuses on creating value by investing in future profitable and sustainable growth, which is based on four strategic pillars: Improving profitability, innovation as well as research and development, dynamic growth in emerging markets, and optimizing the portfolio through complementary acquisitions or divestments.
Air Purification – Catalysts for Stationary and Mobile Emission Control

Catalyst Cleaning and RejuvenationDuring a catalysts lifetime, the catalyst bed may be exposed to certain foreign elements that can inhibit its ability to achieve its maximum designed destruction efficiency. These elements may accumulate over time, and form weak or strong bonds with surface of the catalyst, blocking active metal sites. It may be possible to remove elemental contaminants such as alkaline earths, base metals, silicon, phosphorus and sulfur, improving activity by ... |
