Our Energy Solutions business consists of 2 segments, Synthomer Wellbore Solutions and Synthomer Battery Materials. As the world of energy is shifting so is our business and we are looking to expand our portfolio in both segments to include solutions for the CCS and Energy Storage sectors.
• Synthomer Wellbore Solutions currently supplies the Oil & Gas industry with materials such as advanced liquid and dry cementing additives which are increasingly used for applications such as geothermal energy extraction and CO2 storage. Building on this trend, Synthomer intends to grow its contribution to the energy transition through innovation, partnerships and investments.
• The Synthomer Battery Materials business supplies water-based anode binders to the cell industry and is working on innovation projects to bring other outstanding battery materials to the market.
Synthomer is well placed to support the energy transition with its current product range and its pipeline of innovative solutions.
