2021 Annual and Sustainable Performance Report

The Arkema story, the four pillars of our transformation

We have managed our portfolio so as to refocus on specialty materials - which now represent 90% of our portfolio - and to consolidate three additional business segments with a unique market offering to address the issue of using more sustainable materials.

Over the last 17 years, we have increased our revenue by 40%, thanks to our acquisitions and our dynamic organic growth.

We have rebalanced our global presence

With revenue increasing from €5.7 billion in 2005 to €9.5 in 2021, Arkema has continued to grow and invest in developing regions. Over the past 17 years, the Group has sought to strategically balance its activities between Europe, Asia and North America.
