The company focuses on the development, manufacturing and marketing of chemical intermediates, additives and consumer protection products. LANXESS has achieved leading positions in the Dow Jones Best-in-Class Index and in the MSCI ESG and ISS ESG ratings for its commitment to sustainability. The group reiterated its focus on preserving customer relationships while aligning prices with prevailing cost structures.
