“Becoming an independent company enables us to focus more on our core business,” says Yusuf Aktalay, Group Vice President Process Chemicals and CEO-designate of Pulcra Chemicals. “We will be concentrating on two things in particular: increasing customer satisfaction, and maintaining the strong relationships we have built up over many years."
"As a global player with over 125 years of experience, we have an in-depth knowledge of both the regulatory environment in our key markets and also the prevailing trends relating to health and safety, ecological sustainability and wear comfort. We are therefore well placed for operational success as we move forward.”
In 2006, the Process Chemicals strategic business unit's products for the textile and leather industries achieved sales of 258 million euros, up 4.1 percent from the previous year. The growth was primarily driven by strong demand in the Asia-Pacific region.
