摘要

Clariant says it will cease production of textile dyes and chemicals, as well as paper chemicals, at Muttenz, Switzerland as part of a major restructuring of the company's production capacity over the next three years. The company will also partially close a textile chemicals plant at Resende, Brazil and close a pigments plant at Thane, India. Textile dyes and chemicals production will be transferred from Muttenz to locations in Asia, and paper chemicals production will be transferred from Muttenz to Clariant's site at Prat, Spain, Clariant CEO Hariolf Kottmann says.
