Sasol’s International Chemicals business has an updated strategy focused on long-term, sustainable growth.
During Sasol’s recent Capital Markets Day, Antje Gerber, Executive Vice President of International Chemicals, shared how the company is resetting its foundations after a challenging period—focusing on simplifying and strengthening the business.
With an optimised organisational structure and clear market-facing approach, International Chemicals is poised to unlock greater value from its core strengths. These include access to cost-competitive feedstock and energy, strong customer relationships, deep technical expertise, and a focused portfolio built around surfactants and related value chains.
The reset strategy is based on three key areas:
- A differentiated go-to-market model, tailored to the needs of commodity and specialty customers across the business lines.
- Asset optimisation, including improved reliability and a focus on performance and impact.
- Cost discipline achieved through a leaner more agile operating model and streamlined business structure, reducing the cost base to be more resilient in a uncertain market.
