SOUTHERN AFRICA ENERGY AND CHEMICALS continued
Fuels customer experience
Chemicals Southern Africa well-positioned to compete
Chemical products from our South African facilities
Chemicals Southern Africa boasts a diverse portfolio of products and markets, generating a healthy EBITDA margin.
As a leader in local base chemicals, we are a key supplier with long-standing customer relationships across sub-Saharan Africa. Globally, we hold
market leadership in Comonomers, Fischer-Tropsch (FT) wax, and Co-FT catalysts, positioning us as a strategic supply partner for key customers.
For the remaining export portfolio, our competitive cost position, established supply chains and equidistant access to major global markets
provide a unique advantage, enabling us to adapt to changing market conditions.
We are intensifying our efforts to maintain our cost competitiveness in an increasingly oversupplied market by turning around and improving
lower performing assets – such as the ethylene/polyethylene value chain – in our diverse portfolio. We are also leveraging our diverse global
customer base to optimise returns, particularly in response to the impact of US tariffs on South African exports.
