Did you know that you encounter LANXESS products every day?

LANXESS protects you from insects.

Ticks and mosquitoes transmit dangerous diseases. The best way to keep blood-sucking insects and ticks away is "prevention first". This is ensured by our active ingredient Icaridin, which LANXESS subsidiary Saltigo sells to insect repellent manufacturers under the trade name Saltidin®.

LANXESS makes your beverages last longer.

LANXESS produces a natural preservative called Nagardo®. It is based on an active ingredient derived from a fungus and helps control microorganisms like bacteria and fungi in beverages, preventing spoilage.

LANXESS filters your water.

In some regions, it may make sense to treat drinking water, especially due to water hardness. Water hardness is caused by lime, which can deposit as a white residue and damage household appliances.This can lead to deposits in pipes and devices. LANXESS has the perfect solution for water softening.

LANXESS effectively removes stubborn stains from your dishes.

Our product Oxone™ excels in providing superior brightness and stain removal to fabrics and surfaces. It effectively removes stubborn stains, leaving clothes, dishes and surfaces looking pristine after every wash.
A sense of mutual respect and mindfulness permeates our culture-in fact, it’s the key to our success.
