Complementary Businesses that are Well Positioned to Enable Change
Our long history of innovation expertise and close customer collaboration supports the development of proprietary catalysts and services across our two industry-leading businesses, Ecoservices and Advanced Materials & Catalystss, formerly known respectively as Refining Services and Catalysts. The products and services of these two businesses have proven track records with our customers.
While each of these businesses has strong attributes on a stand-alone basis, they benefit from the complementarity of the combination in our portfolio. We expect this shared value to increase, as we advance our plans to expand our product and service offerings to accelerate customers’ transition to a sustainability-driven future.
With significant sulfuric acid processing know-how and an extensive network, we are an industry leader. We provide end-to-end regeneration services or recycling of spent acid for alkylation producers. It is important to note that Alkylate is benefitting from a demand shift to higher-octane gasoline as it is a critical fuel component in meeting higher standards for fuel efficiency and lower emissions.
Additionally, Ecoservices provides specialty grade high purity virgin sulfuric acid for a number of diverse and growing end uses. Among them are mining, particularly copper for electronics applications, production of lead acid batteries for all types of vehicles, water treatment, and agricultural products.
Our Advanced Materials & Catalysts business is a leader in engineering proprietary and customized technologies for cleaner fuels, emissions control and waste reduction. Our silica-based catalysts are specified by the largest global polyethylene licensors and producers, supporting their requirements for higher performance in terms of durability and lightweighting.
We also have a strategic 33-year joint venture partnership with Shell, Zeolyst International, where we have leading expertise in zeolite-based Advanced Materials & Catalysts for tightening environmental standards for global fuel emissions.

Change is Accelerating in the Industries We Serve, and Our Customers Must Adapt
As fundamental global trends take place, we are enthusiastic about our current and future positioning in supporting our customers. With growing evidence and concerns regarding the pace of climate change and air quality levels, we are positioning for three key trends over the next few decades where we can be part of the solution:
- Increasing standards and obligations for manufacturers to make meaningful efforts to reduce the environmental footprint of their activities;
- Shift to cleaner energy sources, particularly for the transportation industry;
- Growing urgency for recycling solutions for plastics.
These changing dynamics create a momentum for extended and new emerging end uses for our products and solutions. We are engaging these trends with strategic considerations and clear prioritization as we innovate for the future.
