Clariant Scales Up Daya Bay Operations for E-Mobility Growth

Clariant has completed its CHF 100 million investment in its Daya Bay facility, with the second production line becoming fully operational in November. The expanded capacity enhances the company’s ability to meet rising demand for sustainable flame-retardant solutions across Asia and global markets, particularly in the fast-growing e-mobility sector.

Angela Cackovich, Business President Adsorbents & Additives and EMEA and Member of the Executive Steering Committee, said "Our continued investment in the Daya Bay facility underscores our commitment to supporting the significant growth of engineering plastics applications in e-mobility and electrical & electronic segments."

"With this world-class manufacturing plant, we strengthen our leading position in innovative and more sustainable fire safety solutions while improving our ability to serve customers across the Asia Pacific region with reduced delivery times and tailored solutions."

Clariant also expanded its Exolit™ OP flame-retardant portfolio with two new high-performance solutions for polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) applications in the e-mobility sector. The new products, Exolit™ OP 1242 (TP) and Exolit™ OP 1266 (TP), were showcased at K 2025.
