Investment and Expansion
Clariant has completed an CHF 80 million investment to expand its Daya Bay site in China. This strategic move significantly enhances the company's manufacturing capabilities in key growth areas.
Pharmaceutical and Specialty Chemicals
The expansion focuses on pharmaceutical excipients and specialty chemicals for personal and home care applications. A second spray tower has been added to serve customers in south China, positioning Clariant as a key supplier for Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) and excipients.
Increased Production Capacity
Clariant has expanded its Polyglykol capacity and added a new reactor to its multi-purpose plant. This facility now produces mild surfactants for the beauty industry and soil release polymers for home care, addressing the growing demand for effective personal and home care products.
Sustainable Solutions
The Daya Bay site now features high-performance surfactants, water-based coatings, and synthetic lubricant ingredients. These products aim to reduce VOC emissions and extend equipment life, supporting sustainable chemistry solutions for China's evolving industrial needs.
