Clariant`s Capital Markets & Media Days (CMMD) 2014 were held in the new Clariant Innovation Center (CIC) on Industriepark Höchst, one of the biggest chemical production clusters in Germany.

This year’s event focused on innovation as this is a vital part of Clariant’s growth strategy and the speakers gave a deeper insight into the approach to converting innovation into market success.

They shared highlights of Clariant`s global R&D approach and explained how innovation will be converted into market success and ultimately into cash.

Clariant further presented future solutions with a focus on Personal Care, Crop Solutions, Catalysts and Masterbatches.

A tour through the CIC which stands for the new Clariant was part of the program. The building is open, transparent and enables daily interaction and cross-fertilization between businesses, researchers and customers.

A visit to Clariant`s production site at the Industriepark Höchst was another highlight of the Capital Markets & Media Days 2014.
