As a global leader in the chemicals industry, Celanese makes products essential to everyday living. Our products, found in consumer and industrial applications, are manufactured in North America, Europe and Asia. We are one of the world’s largest producers of acetyl products, which are intermediate chemicals for nearly all major industries, as well as leading global producer of high-performance engineered polymers that are used in a variety of high value end-use applications.
We operated primarily through four business segments: Advanced Engineered Materials, Consumer Specialties, Industrial Specialties and Acetyl Intermediates. Net sales totaled $5.1 billion in 2009, with approximately 73% generated outside of North America. Based in Dallas, Texas, the company employs approximately 7,400 employees worldwide.
Celanese has been doing business in China since the 1960s, and in the late 1980s, Celanese began to invest in China by the establishment of joint ventures with Chinese partners and has manufacturing bases in Nantong, Zhuhai and Kun Ming to produce acetate tow and flake.
Celanese (China) Holding Co. Ltd was established in 2004 to manage Celanese investments in China and product sales from all business segments. In 2007, Celanese relocated the strategic management of its Acetyls business to Shanghai, to manage acetyls’ global business functions. In September 2007, Celanese’s wholly-owned integrated chemical complex was officially opened in Nanjing, including six production units that adopt Celanese’s best-in-class technology. The company will build the Shanghai Commercial and Technology Center that combines the headquarters for Celanese’s Asia businesses, customer application development and R&D center.
China is a very important market for Celanese. It is a key link in our global business strategy and a significant contributor to our growth and development. With leading technology, a growth focused strategy, a strong business portfolio and excellent professionals, Celanese is on the way to becoming the premier chemical company.
