About TIB Chemicals AG
TIB Chemicals AG is an internationally oriented, mid-sized, family-owned chemical company headquartered in Mannheim. The company develops, produces and distributes more than 1,000 products in the fields of basic chemicals, inorganic specialty chemicals and coating systems, including acids, catalysts, metal and tin salts, bitumen specialties, process additives and polyurethane coatings for the pipeline industry. As an approved recycler, TIB Chemicals also returns complex liquid and solid residues from the chemical, metal and surface-treatment industries into closed material loops and recovers secondary raw materials such as zinc, copper and tin from them. The offering is complemented by material flow management, logistics with a large-volume tank farm (ship, tank car, road tanker) and consulting. With around 450 employees, the company supplies 15 application industries, including electroplating, hot-dip galvanizing, automotive, petrochemicals and water treatment, and is represented with subsidiaries in Mexico and the USA. Around 55 percent of its energy demand is covered by self-generated energy.
