Yule Catto & Co plc
Marl Site Operations
Yule Catto & Co plc ("Yule Catto" or the "Group"), the international producer of speciality chemicals, today issues this update on the status of its operations at the Marl Chemiepark, Germany following an incident on the site of another plant operator elsewhere on the Marl site on Saturday 31st March . Our thoughts are with those who were injured and their families.
No Yule Catto staff or operations were either involved in or affected by the accident or its consequences, and production continued normally in all three of the Group's plants on the Marl site both on Saturday 31st March when the incident occurred and over the remainder of the weekend.
The Authorities are continuing to investigate the cause of the incident, but based on the information available at this time, we do not anticipate any impact to normal production at any of our plants on the Marl Site.
The Marl Site is one of 4 locations in Europe where Yule Catto produce SBR (Styrene Butadiene) Latex Emulsion through its Synthomer subsidiary. The Marl Site, where 3 production units are located, produces a range of speciality SBR Latex Emulsion products.
