By doing so, we were able to partially counteract the effects of exceptionally high raw material and energy prices. As a result our Adjusted EBITDA is almost on the same level as last year on an organic basis. All three of our core business areas, which focus on the global wellness and sustainability trends, were able to increase their sales', comments Cognis CEO Antonio Trius.
