Pulcra sales fall
Published: 21 April, 2008
Since July 1, 2007, what was formerly Cognis' Process Chemicals SBU has been trading under the name of Pulcra Chemicals, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Cognis group.
Its sales fell by 4.7 % to €246 million (organic sales were down 2.5 %). Although Pulcra Chemicals did achieve growth in China, volumes in all other regions were lower, due to the adverse market conditions in both the textiles and leather industries. At the same time, higher raw material costs affected the business negatively.
