Clariant looks back on a year marked by macroeconomic challenges, but that nonetheless brought us significantly closer to achieving our ambitious non-financial targets. Along with this, we are proud that the changes in our operating model that we implemented in 2023 are also showing results, with increased customer satisfaction, significantly higher employee engagement, and a safety record that is in the top quartile of our industry.
