Catalysis recorded revenue and earnings growth in 2012. Further progress was made in most social and environmental areas.

Profitability was lower due to adverse economic conditions, particularly in the photovoltaic market and also due to start-up costs of our new investments.

Profits were down 19% due to the weaker economic environment. Good progress was again noted in most areas of environmental and social performance.

Another outstanding economic performance with profitability and returns at very high levels. Some progress was noted in safety performance.
