Solvay Chemicals, Inc., announced 21 January 2009 that it has exercised its right to withdraw from the American Natural Soda Ash Corp., thus initiating a two-year exit process. ANSAC is a consortium of US-based soda ash producers that sells into specific overseas markets. Solvay Chemicals is a subsidiary of the Solvay Group, the world“s largest soda ash producer, and says the move reflects the success of its expanded global business. “We“re very pleased to have been part of ANSAC,” explained Richard Hogan, president of Solvay Chemicals, Inc. “We felt the evolution of our business made this move necessary as we have grown to a point where logistically and technically we can serve our customers no matter where they operate. ANSAC and Solvay Chemicals are committed to securing a smooth and seamless exit to ensure effective customer supply,” Mr. Hogan added. Solvay Chemical“s full withdrawal from ANSAC will become final on 31 December 2010.
