ALTANA Environmental Report

The divestment of our pharmaceutical business marks the beginning of a new era for ALTANA. Under the umbrella of the former ALTANA AG, we have grown into a powerful global specialty chemicals company with outstanding perspectives and a bright future. The new ALTANA is characterized by its openness and transparency and pursues the clear entrepreneurial goal of establishing leadership in ist markets. Our commitment to achieve this goal with sustainable development is equally firm. Our business activities focus on specialty chemicals. It is the nature of our business to supply our customers with intelligent substances that have signifi cant effects even though they only represent a small percentage share of the final product. Perhaps our ability to use resources efficiently comes from the same outlook.

The name ALTANA will be associated with a new company in the future, but ALTANA will always be seen as a responsible company that is consistently aligned with the demands of the future. This report details how the new corporation will meet its obligations toward society and the environment. All Divisions of our company have their own traditions and values, as well as national perceptions, regarding the implementation and documentation of social responsibility. We will use these approaches to create a shared self-definition of the company, in which the obligation of sustainability will play a central role.
