Imperial Chemical Industries PLC Company Profile
Empire may no longer be such a popular word, but Imperial Chemical Industries (ICI) is still among the chemical royalty. Its specialty products group consists of National Starch and Chemical (industrial adhesives, starches, and electronics materials). Its paint offerings include the Alba, Dulux, and Glidden brands and make up half the company's annual sales. ICI's regional and industrial chemicals segment (subsidiaries in Argentina, India, and Pakistan) makes explosives, soda ash, sulfur-related products, and fibers. The company sold subsidiaries Uniqema (to Croda for $750 million) and Quest (to Givaudan for $2.3 billion) in 2006 and 2007. Not long after Akzo Nobel agreed to buy ICI for about $16 billion.
