News July 17, 2007 - The German specialty chemicals group CABB GmbH, based in Sulzbach am Taunus, Germany, aquires 100% of the shares in SF-Chem, Pratteln/Basel, Switzerland. SF-Chem was founded by the major chemical companies in Basel in 1917 as a joint operation, focussing on chlorine and sulphur based chemicals. In 2004 the company was sold by Syngenta and Clariant as part of a management buyout. In close cooperation with the now departing majority shareholder Capvis, SF-Chem has been successfully positioned in the market as an independent company over the past years. SF-Chem and CABB are similar in size; together they will form a new European leader in chlorine intermediates.
