News	2006 - Renaming to Arsol Aromatics - For decades, Aral and Aral Aromatics have been company names that have stood for consistent quality and reliability, and a high level of service for our customers and clients. Under the terms of the spin-off of the chemical business from Aral in 2001, Aral Aromatics' entitlement to use the Aral brand and logo was set to expire in 2006. Accordingly a new name was selected, one which - since this plant produces aromatics and solvents - has been closely linked with our products for over 50 years. By combining this new name and image with the customary quality of what is offered, the partnership with all clients will be continued. Apart from the change of name, no further alterations are envisaged.
