European Chlor-Alkali operates as an interconnected system where a small set of inputs is transformed into essential chemicals with many linked and important applications. Meaning:
Three raw materials (Salt, electricity, water)…
make four foundational chemicals (Chlorine, Caustic Soda, Caustic Potash, Hydrogen)…
with multiple downstream applications that might, at first glance, look unrelated but are in fact deeply connected.
As seen during the pandemic, a small impact on one of these chemicals could lead to irreversible damage and loss of these key chemicals for Europe. Find out more here.
