Clariant Newsroom

Clariant Oil Services today announced the successful offshore deployment of HYTREAT™ ECO, an anti-agglomerant low dosage hydrate inhibitor (LDHI-AA) technology that satisfies both the performance demands of deepwater hydrate management and OSPAR's stringent North Sea environmental requirements. Proven in offshore fields in both Norway and the United Kingdom, the technology represents a significant advancement in offshore flow assurance, enabling operators to reduce chemical consumption while maintaining reliable hydrate control in some of the world's most demanding deepwater environments.

Clariant launched it’s next-generation SVHC-free flame retardant, a safer solution that provides superior fire resistance and meets the stringent demands of modern industries.

In 2025, Clariant is proud to celebrate a significant milestone: 50 years of Exolit AP flame retardants protecting lives and property around the world. Based on advanced ammonium polyphosphate (APP) technology, these pioneering flame retardants have become the industry benchmark in a wide range of applications, including intumescent coatings, fire barrier sealing systems, thermoset composites for e-mobility battery housings and coatings, rigid polyisocyanurate (PIR) insulation foams and more. As Clariant marks this golden anniversary, it is not just celebrating past achievements but actively shaping the future of fire protection.

Clariant completes its CHF 100 million investment in the Daya Bay facility, with the second production line fully operational in November. This expanded capacity strengthens Clariant's ability to meet growing demand for more sustainable flame-retardant solutions in Asia and globally, particularly in the rapidly expanding e-mobility sector.

Clariant today announced the successful placement of EUR 500 million in unsecured Eurobonds issued by its subsidiary Clariant International Financial Services (Luxembourg) S.à.r.l. and guaranteed by Clariant AG.

Clariant has received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for its bio-based Licocare RBW wax additives for use in rigid polyvinyl chloride (PVC) food-contact applications. The authorization, effective May 7, 2026, extends the company's existing FDA approval beyond polyester materials to include rigid PVC.
