Lanxess’ roots in South Africa date back to 1922 when the local Bayer operation first began. To date, the group Lanxess is one of the world’s biggest suppliers of chrome ore for the chemical industry and a leading producer of chrome chemicals. The company currently has a representation of 50 production sites worldwide. It is the only company to handle the entire value chain from the chrome ore to the leather tanning materials in South Africa. The Lanxess chain starts with the mining of the raw material, and the chrome ore which is processed into sodium dichromate and chromic acid. Sodium dichromate is then shipped to Lanxess’ plant in Merebank, near Durban, and used in the production of chrome tanning salts for the global leather tanning industry. Lanxess is also a global leader in the manufacturing and distribution of rubber chemicals and in South Africa its production facility is located at Isithebe in northern Kwazulu-Natal.
