About Solvay

Since its foundation by Ernest Solvay in 1863, the Solvay Group has always been a research-based company. In 1861, E. Solvay developed soda ash (sodium carbonate) production using the patented ammonia-soda process. This innovative process is still the foundation of Solvay's guiding principle: "Progress by conviction" - for example, some 386 million euros were invested in research and development in 2003.

Today, Solvay focuses on four core areas: chemicals, plastics, processing and health. With 400 sites in 50 countries, Solvay has become an international company. More than 30,000 employees strive to earn the trust of their customers - every day. The health sector, which is the fastest growing within the Solvay Group, includes products for human medicine, enzymes and vitamins. In the meantime, the human medicine sector "Solvay Pharmaceuticals" is one of the leading 35 pharmaceutical groups in the world.
