Chemours is a U.S.-based specialty chemicals company formed from the separation of DuPont’s performance chemicals businesses. It sells performance inputs that sit inside end products rather than consumer-facing brands, with core offerings in refrigerants, titanium dioxide pigment, and fluoropolymer/advanced materials. The company’s products are used in refrigeration and air conditioning, coatings, plastics, electronics, transportation, energy, oil and gas, and medical applications. Chemours organizes its business into three segments: Thermal & Specialized Solutions, Titanium Technologies, and Advanced Performance Materials. Its operating model combines direct sales, distributors, technical service, and long-term customer relationships, supported by in-house R&D at the Chemours Discovery Hub in Delaware.
