Tronox (NYSE:TROX) Limited is a vertically integrated global producer of titanium dioxide (TiO2) pigment, which is widely used to enhance whiteness, brightness and opacity in a range of industrial and consumer applications. Through its mining operations, the company extracts mineral sands that are further processed into feedstocks and ultimately refined into high‐purity TiO2 pigment. Tronox’s downstream capabilities include manufacturing plants that produce both chloride and sulfate process pigments, enabling it to serve diverse customer requirements across coatings, plastics, paper, inks, fibers and other specialty applications.
The company’s product portfolio extends beyond TiO2 pigment to include specialty chemicals and intermediates that support value‐added client needs. Tronox supplies engineered solutions such as anatase and rutile pigments with tailored particle size distributions, surface coatings and granules for easy handling. Its technical service teams collaborate with customers on formulation development and application optimization, helping to reduce waste and improve performance in end‐use markets like architectural coatings, automotive finishes, packaging and industrial coatings.
Tronox operates a globally dispersed asset base, with mineral sands mining sites in Australia, South Africa and North America, and pigment production facilities in Europe, North America, Australia and Asia. These operations are supported by a network of sales and distribution offices that serve more than 100 countries worldwide. The company places a strong emphasis on sustainable resource management, investing in advanced tailings management and reclamation practices at its mining sites, and energy efficiency and emissions controls at its processing plants.
Tronox traces its roots to the spin‐off of Kerr‐McGee’s TiO2 business in 2005 and has since expanded through strategic acquisitions and organic growth initiatives. In recent years, the company completed a transformational merger that significantly increased its scale and broadened its geographic footprint. Today, Tronox is guided by a seasoned executive leadership team and board of directors with extensive experience in the chemicals and mining sectors. Their collective expertise drives the company’s strategic priorities, including innovation in pigment technology, operational excellence and responsible environmental stewardship.
