History
Clariant was formed in 1995 as a spin off from the chemical company Sandoz, which was itself established in Basel in 1886.
 
Clariant expanded through the incorporation of the speciality chemicals business of Hoechst (Germany) in 1997, and the acquisitions of BTP plc (UK) in 2000 and Ciba’s Masterbatches division in 2006.
 
In 2008, the company acquired  leading U.S. colorant suppliers Rite Systems and Ricon Colors.
 
The latest acquisition, the specialty chemicals company Süd-Chemie (Germany), was completed on 21. April 2011.
