The investment in 2021 will reach about 200 million euros

Shanghai, December 10, 2018—Special chemicals company LANXESS plans to invest about 200 million euros in the next three years EUR, to strengthen building its global flame retardant asset base. LANXESS operates a bromine-based/phosphorous-based flame retardant production network covering halogenated and non-halogenated poles integrated in the United States (Charleston, El Dorado, Greensboro), Germany (Le Several plants in Vaukusen, Krefeld-Uerdingen), France (Épierre) and Great Britain (Manchester).

"After acquiring Chemtura in the spring of 2017, we have become one of the world's leading suppliers of flame retardant additives. Through a series of investments, we will further strengthen our position in this growing market" Karsten Job, Head of Lanxess Polymer Additives business.

After integrating the former Chemtura's brominated flame retardant additives, bromine and bromine derivatives business, LANXESS has significantly enhanced its market position in flame retardant additives. Due to their high efficiency, these products are widely used in the construction industry and are an ideal complement to LANXESS' existing phosphorus-based flame retardant additive business.

Focus on R&D

In addition to the flame retardant production network, LANXESS also operates two technical development centers for flame retardant products in Naugatuck, USA and Leverkusen, Germany. "Besides Leverkusen and Naugatuck, we are also driving global innovations, such as reactive polymer-based flame retardants," says Job. LANXESS' Emerald Innovation 3000 reactive polymer flame retardants are in growing demand because they are more sustainable than conventional flame retardants.
