BRUNSB\u00dcTTEL, Germany--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sasol International Chemicals today announced a \u20ac60 million investment at its Brunsb\u00fcttel site to expand its advanced materials and specialty chemicals capabilities, reinforcing the company\u2019s position as a leading global supplier of high\u2011performance aluminas and related specialty materials.<\/p><\/a><\/a>

\nThe project will debottleneck and expand Sasol\u2019s existing Advanced Materials alumina asset base in Brunsb\u00fcttel, strengthening its role as a differentiated merchant supplier of spherical alumina supports for advanced catalyst systems and other high\u2011value applications. The enhanced capability will support customers in sectors where performance, security of supply and technical partnership are key competitive drivers.<\/p>

\nThe investment marks a significant step in Sasol\u2019s strategy to grow its portfolio of specialty products, deepen long\u2011term customer relationships and enhance the resilience of its global chemicals business. All required construction approvals have been secured, enabling the project to move into execution. Procurement activities are underway, with selection of the general contractor expected in June and beneficial operation targeted around 2029.<\/p>

\n\u201cThis investment is about scaling and sharpening the capabilities that differentiate Sasol in advanced materials and specialty chemicals,\u201d said Stefan Maedje, head of Advanced Materials for Sasol\u2019s International Chemicals business. \u201cBy expanding our advanced alumina production and enhancing process performance, we are reinforcing our role as a reliable, technology\u2011driven partner for customers in critical applications where performance and continuity of supply are non\u2011negotiable.\u201d<\/p>

\nThe project design integrates energy optimization and process improvements and is expected to reduce the product carbon footprint by up to 15% per ton compared to the existing baseline, supporting both Sasol\u2019s and its customers\u2019 sustainability and competitiveness objectives.<\/p>

\n\u201cThis is a targeted, disciplined growth investment in an established advanced materials platform,\u201d added Maedje. \u201cIt enhances our ability to support customers who require high\u2011purity and ultra\u2011high\u2011purity aluminas and specialty materials for the next generation of catalyst and process technologies.\u201d<\/p>

\nIn the context of a challenging European chemicals environment, Sasol\u2019s investment demonstrates that selective, performance\u2011driven growth in advanced materials and specialty products remains attractive where existing assets, capabilities and market positions can be leveraged effectively.<\/p>
