moreLanxess, a specialty chemicals company, was incorporated in 2004 and has its headquarters in Cologne, Germany. The company operates through several business categories, including Advanced Intermediates, which produces industrial chemicals such as benzyl products and amines; Specialty Additives, offering various industry additives including lubricants and flame retardants; Performance Chemicals, which includes products for water treatment and material protection; and Engineering Materials, providing high-performance plastics for the automotive and electronics industries. Although Lanxess had a joint venture named ARLANXEO with Saudi Aramco for synthetic rubber products, it is important to note that it sold its stake to Saudi Aramco in 2019, and therefore it is only a part of the company's historical portfolio. The company's most important brands include Durethan and Pocan for high-performance plastics; Levacast and Levamelt for polyurethane elastomers; Adiprene/Lubrithane for urethane prepolymers; and Bayferrox® and Colortherm® for Iron Oxide and Chrome Oxide pigments. Additionally, Saltigo is known for providing custom chemical synthesis services. Lanxess has a significant global presence, selling products and services in major markets such as Europe, Asia, and the Americas, with key countries including Germany, China, the United States, India, and Brazil. These regions reflect the company's broad international reach and its status as a global entity in the chemical industry. (Powered by AI)
