These multi-functional properties are valuable in a vast range of applications. A global network of production facilities, sales offices and technical service centres assures the best local service and competence, where and when you need it.

Market driven innovation efforts are performed by our R&D centres in Norway, the USA and India, and through our global technical service teams. Our roots stem from the pioneering lignin chemicals businesses in the US and Sweden over 90 years ago, from which we have built unique competence in producing customised solutions together with our customers.
