Details
The inauguration on Wednesday 30 April of
the new 70,000 tonne membrane electrolysis room,
which uses the latest technologies,
officially establishes the new industrial organisation of
the Jarrie site’s activities.
Jarrie ranks among
the world’s leading hydrogen peroxide sites and
is also positioned in the chlorine and derivatives market.
The Jarrie facility, which operates in activities –
hydrogen peroxide and chlorine –
for which the cost structure is key,
will continue to work on its competitiveness
both at site level and in terms of external factors
such as the cost of energy and access to salt,
all of which are essential for
the long-term future of the activities.
With this investment, Arkema continues the major drive
to upgrade its French facilities undertaken
since the Group’s stock market listing in 2006,
thereby confirming its firm roots in France.
