It is difficult to sum up such a strange year. In the context of the global pandemic, during which everyone worked so tirelessly to support one another, we maintained our business activities around the world and continued to pursue our projects and refocus our businesses, R&D collaborations and CSR commitments. We look back at some of the highlights.
In China, Arkema donated 26 metric tons of hydrogen peroxide, used as a disinfectant, to the health authorities in Hube province.
Arkema decided to adapt one of the production lines at its Rhône Alpes research center CRRA, just outside Lyon, to produce 20 metric tons of hand sanitizer every week and urgently distribute it free of charge to French hospitals. Our Jarrie plant near Grenoble supplied the requisite hydrogen peroxide.
