The sale takes place as part of a package of measures with which Sasol repositions itself. The portfolio is being streamlined by concentrating on core assets. Excluded from the sale is the South African Fischer-Tropsch hard wax business. This also includes the part in Europe that is managed by Sasol Wax GmbH. This business will remain with Sasol.
Dr. Jens Straatmann, Managing Director of Sasol Germany GmbH, emphasises: “We are pleased to have found a strategic investor for our European wax business. The sale allows us at Sasol to take another important strategic step towards focusing on our core assets.”
Giuseppe Ambroggio, CEO of Awax, says: “Sasol Wax GmbH has the most advanced wax hydrogenation facility in the world. With this acquisition the Group will further expand its wax product portfolio and strengthen its technological leadership in the wax market.”
