Rhodia was a group founded in 1988 that specialized in fine chemistry, synthetic fibers, and polymers.

The company was acquired by the Belgian Solvay group in September 2011 in a deal valued at €3.4 billion.[2] The company served the consumer goods, automotive, energy, manufacturing, and processes and electronics markets, and had 65 production sites worldwide, four research centers, and four joint laboratories.

History

Rhodia was a public company that was founded on January 1, 1998,[3] following the spin-off of the chemicals, fibers, and polymers activities of Rhône-Poulenc when it merged with the German company Hoechst. On June 25, 1998, Rhône-Poulenc sold 32.7% of its share in Rhodia's capital to the public. In 1999, Rhodia made two acquisitions:

  • The Engineering Plastics activity of the top Korean group Hyosung, for Rhodia's Polyamides business unit.[4]
  • The Iberica Mix & Fix Center activity of Quimica Dos. The Mix & Fix Center is a unit that formulates and sells ready-to-use hot vulcanizable silicone Elastomers.[5]

From October 1999, Rhône-Poulenc, which became Aventis then Sanofi-Aventis, gradually reduced its stake in Rhodia's capital. It sold all its shares in the company on October 17, 2006.[6]

Rhodia grew in the United Kingdom and the United States by buying out Albright and Wilson and ChiRex.[7][8] In 2002, Rhodia sold off its basic chemical activities in Europe (phenol, hydrochloric acid, sodium carbonate) and its holdings in Latexia (which was the world's number two for latex for paper) and Teris (treatment of toxic waste).[9][10] In 2004, Rhodia sold its food ingredients business. On March 31, 2004, Yves-René Nanot [fr] was appointed chairman of the board of directors.

In 2006, Rhodia sold its latex business, its synthesis activity, and its facilities for the production of industrial wires and fibers in Europe. 2006 also saw the creation of Orbeo,[11] a joint venture with Société Générale, in the field of origination, trade and sale of carbon credits. Orbeo represents 8% of the carbon market.[12]

In 2007, Rhodia sold its silicones production activity and its Nylstar subsidiary (synthetic textile fiber) and acquired the alumina activity of WR Grace. In 2008, Rhodia sold its fine organic chemicals and pharmaceutical activities. On March 17, 2008, the board of directors appointed Jean-Pierre Clamadieu as the chairman and CEO of Rhodia. This appointment followed the resignation of Yves-René Nanot from his position as the chairman of the board of directors as a result of the statutory conditions applying to age limits.[12]

In 2009, Rhodia acquired two companies: OneCarbon International and the McIntyre Group (specialized surfactants, United States).[13][14] In 2009, the Belgian chemicals group Solvay launched a friendly public takeover bid for Rhodia. [15] In 2010, Rhodia acquired an 87% stake in the capital of Feixiang Chemicals.[16] On January 1, 2011, Rhodia set up a new organization. Operational activities are now organized in 11 business units, in five sectors of activity: Consumer Chemicals, Advanced Materials, Polyamide Materials, Acetow & Eco Services, and Energy Services. The additional Support Function Group includes corporate activities.[17]

On March 8, 2011, Rhodia announced the finalization of the acquisition of the Suzhou HiPro Polymers guar derivatives production plant in Zhangjiagang, China[18] and on April 13, 2011, Rhodia completed the acquisition of the engineering plastics activity of the Indian company PI Industries Ltd (PIIL),[19] following the approval of the Indian authorities.

In September 2011, Solvay's tender offer on Rhodia was completed and Rhodia became a sector of the Solvay group.

Debt from Rhône-Poulenc

After its breakaway from Rhône-Poulenc, Rhodia had to cope with the repercussions of soil pollution and financial liabilities. Prominent figures, such as Thierry Breton and the Swiss banker Édouard Stern, were involved in trying to work out solutions. The group's balance sheet-based structure remained fragile due to negative equity. On December 31, 1999, Rhodia's debt inherited from the split with Rhône-Poulenc amounted to €1,540 million.[20] In an attempt to solve the group's debt problem, management renegotiated a debt estimated at €1 billion in 2010 (Rhodia's lowest debt level since the group was created ).[17] Declared tangible investments in 2009 totaled €167 million, compared with €241 million in 2008.[21]

Commitment to Sustainable Development

In 2003, Rhodia set up a department dedicated to sustainable development.[22] In 2007, it rolled out the "Rhodia Way",[23] the group's reference framework of responsibilities toward stakeholders. Group employees can use this reference system to self-assess the performance of their entity in terms of social and environmental responsibility, to encourage more responsible practices.[24]

Group activities

Consumer Chemicals

Consumer Chemicals is made up of three business units: Novecare, Coatis, and Aroma Performance, which mainly service the consumer markets. In 2010, Consumer Chemicals posted revenues of €1,883 million, representing 36% of the Rhodia Group's revenue.22Breakdown of revenue by market sector in 2010.[17]

La Rochelle

According to ANDRA, the French agency for waste management,[35] until July 1994, Electronics and Catalysis (now Rhodia Rare Earth Systems) used very slightly radioactive monazite as an ore, producing radium-bearing waste, which was initially stored at ANDRA's La Manche center until 1991, then in the French atomic energy commission's Cadarache facility.[36] The treatment of the slightly radioactive monazite produced 8,023 tons (according to ANDRA [35] ) of slightly radioactive solid residue up until 1994. According to ANDRA, in 2007, this residue contained 2,000 tons of uranium and 2.6 tons of toxic lead. The plant is subject to ICPE[37] environmental surveillance. A project to launch a recycling plant for the rare earth contained in used lightbulbs is being looked into.[38]

Asia-Pacific

Rhodia currently includes a Rhodia-Asia-Pacific zone (CIS, Middle East, and Africa), managed by Michel Ybert, with an operational head office in Shanghai. This zone has 21 production sites [39] and accounted for 29% of Rhodia's revenues in 2010. The Asia-Pacific support functions—finance, HR, purchasing, and IT—are based in Singapore The Asia Pacific zone includes production activities in China, Japan, Thailand, India, and Indonesia, plus commercial activities in China, Japan, and Korea.[39]

South America

The Rhodia Group has three production sites in Brazil and one in Venezuela.[40]

North America

The Rhodia Group has 18 sites spread across the United States.[41]

Former production sites

Rhodia opération SAS

Located on the banks of the Deûle canal, near Lille in Northern France, the ICPE chemical works was founded by Frédéric Kuhlmann [fr], who started with a small two-hectare chemical factory that he bought in 1847. The factory then belonged to the Rhône-Poulenc Chemicals group, which became Rhodia. During a working lifetime of 150 years, the site grew from two to 33 hectares, in the neighborhoods of La Madeleine, Saint-André-lez-Lille and Marquette-lez-Lille.[42]

Between 1961 and 2001, the site produced highly toxic Toluene diisocyanate (TDI),[43] which is one of the basic components used to produce polyurethane foam. Until December 2005, the tar produced by the synthesis of the TDI was incinerated on-site.

The group abandoned the site, and the last remaining remnants—the two 80-meter-high smoke stacks built in 1929 and 1933—were demolished. Until 2006, a store, a plant, and a backup store of oleum remained on the site[42] 3,000 m³ of earth from the old branch railway were stored on the site and part of the plot was bought by the FICHAUX coffee roasting company.

2008 report on pollution

Various studies, supervised by the French regional agency for industry and research, DRIRE [fr], revealed serious pollution by heavy metals (zinc, copper and lead) almost everywhere on the site, plus mercury and cadmium in one area and nitrates, sulfates, ammonium and arsenic by the Deûle canal.[44] Certain pollutants had percolated into the soil and polluted the surface groundwater: potassium, sulfates, nitrates, nitrites, chlorides, ammonium and sodium, and locally, zinc and cadmium, to depths of up to 2 m in the so-called ANS sector, plus arsenic under the AS/PS sector and manganese under the GMG sector.[44]

This groundwater rose when the industrial pumps were stopped and flooded the basements in nearby houses, requiring permanent pumping to drain the subsoil. Severe pollution by arsenic was discovered up to depths of 5 meters in the AS/PS sector, plus mercury in the northeast half of this same sector[44] The chalk layer under the site was contaminated by sulfates.[44] For these reasons, the local authorities deemed that the site was compatible with industrial usage, but with restrictions to be applied on a case-by-case basis with the potential buyers of the various parts of the site, on a long-term and mandatory basis for third parties through publication in the land registry. The Lille city authorities considered locating a purification plant on the site. Several projects for the industrial, urban, or administrative use of the site are in progress.[44] The position of the site in an area designated as “green belt” on the banks of the Deûle, the pollution, and its highly artificial character make it an important factor in the ecological fragmentation of the regional "blue infrastructure".

Awards

In 2023, Rhodia was named the best company in the Chemical and Petrochemical sector in Brazil for the second consecutive year in by Época Negócios 360º. The ranking evaluated 410 companies with revenues of at least R$ 250 million in 2022. The evaluation considered various sectors and management challenges like innovation, future vision, ESG/environmental, ESG/governance, people, and financial performance. The Dom Cabral Foundation partnered with Época Negócios for the evaluation process. The award ceremony took place on September 25th, bringing together CEOs and executives from top companies in Brazil. [45]
