Ingevity Corporation

Ingevity Corporation (NGVT) is a global provider specializing in the production and distribution of advanced chemical solutions and activated carbon products. The company's reach extends across North America, the Asia Pacific region, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and South America. Its business operations are organized into two principal divisions: Performance Materials and Performance Chemicals. The Performance Materials segment focuses on the engineering, manufacturing, and sale of chemically activated carbon products, primarily derived from hardwood. These materials are chiefly utilized in gasoline vapor emission control systems for a wide range of vehicles, including cars, motorcycles, trucks, and boats. Beyond automotive applications, this division also supplies various activated carbon products for purification purposes in areas like food, water, beverages, and industrial chemicals. The Performance Chemicals segment covers pavement technologies, industrial specialty products, and engineered polymers. This division creates products sourced from crude tall oil and lignin, which are extracted during the kraft pulping process, as well as caprolactone monomers and their derivatives, synthesized from cyclohexanone and hydrogen peroxide. The extensive applications for these products include warm mix paving, pavement upkeep and refurbishment, and recycling; additives for oil well services, oil production, and downstream applications; alongside components for adhesives, agricultural dispersants, lubricants, printing inks, industrial intermediates, coatings, resins, elastomers, bioplastics, and medical devices. Ingevity Corporation was founded in 1964 and is headquartered in North Charleston, South Carolina.
