Its Oil & Mining unit offers a portfolio of flocculants, coagulants and specialty additives to enhance mineral recovery, tailings treatment and process water reuse.

Kemira traces its origins to Finnish state‐owned chemical enterprises established in the mid‐20th century and was privatized and listed on the Helsinki Stock Exchange in the early 2000s. Over the decades, the company has grown through organic investment and selective acquisitions, with a strong focus on innovation, sustainability and digital process control. Headed by an experienced executive management team and overseen by a board of directors, Kemira continues to target long‐term value creation by advancing water chemistry solutions that address global challenges in resource scarcity and environmental protection.
