Rhodia Launches Production of Eco-Friendly Solvent

Rhodia has launched production of Rhodiasolv® IRIS, an innovative solvent with excellent eco-friendly properties, at a new unit located on the Group’s Santo Andre site in Brazil. Rhodiasolv® IRIS, designed for applications such as industrial cleaning, foundry resins, paints and coatings formulations, is non-toxic, readily biodegradable, nonflammable and low VOC.
“This new eco-friendly solvent was developed by Rhodia’s international innovation platform of R&D centers in Brazil, France, United States and China. It meets the worldwide market trend of sustainable development priorities,” said Jean-Pierre Clamadieu, Rhodia’s Chairman and CEO. “Rhodia already makes 30 percent of its sales with solutions that respond to environmental concerns. We see this trend as one of the key drivers for Rhodia’s growth for the coming years.”
