The headquarters will currently accommodate some 120 employees supporting a variety of corporate functions for the speciality chemicals company formerly known as Ashland Water Technologies.
Following the opening of its European headquarters last winter in Schaffhausen, Switzerland, the opening of the world headquarters is one more step in a series of actions that the young company has taken since it was acquired by a fund managed by private investment firm Clayton, Dubilier & Rice (CD&R) on August 1, 2014.
In addition to the office openings, Solenis recently acquired Clearwater Specialty Chemicals in North America as well as a paper chemical business from CBC in India.
"The new headquarters will further enhance the Solenis corporate identity and culture that we are working hard to develop around the world," stated John Panichella, president and ceo.
