About Ingevity

Ingevity makes chemicals and carbon products that clean air and water. It helps car makers trap gasoline fumes and helps builders recycle old roads. These solutions rely on renewable materials to solve complex industrial problems.

What Does Ingevity Make?

  • Activated Carbon: Processed carbon used in vehicle emission systems to capture gasoline fumes before they reach the air.
  • Pavement Technologies: Chemical additives that allow road crews to pave asphalt at lower temperatures and use recycled materials.
  • Advanced Polymers: Specialty chemicals used to produce biodegradable plastics, high-performance coatings, and medical devices.
  • Lignin Dispersants: Wood-based chemicals that help agricultural sprays spread evenly over crops and soil.

New Deals and Divestitures

  • Sold the road markings product line to PPG Industries Inc. for $65 million on April 15, 2026.
  • Agreed to pay $113.2 million to BASF Corporation in March 2026 to settle all patent and antitrust legal disputes.
  • Amended its credit agreement to extend the maturity of its $750 million revolving loan facility to 2031.

A Greener Approach to Chemistry

Ingevity extracts value from wood pulp byproducts to create high-performance chemicals. This strategy allows the company to provide sustainable alternatives to traditional petroleum-based products for global industrial customers.

By the Numbers

  • Net sales reached $258 million in Q1 2026, up 4.1% from Q1 2025.
  • Net income climbed to $59.8 million in Q1 2026, up 191.7% from the previous year.

  • The company spent $52.3 million to repurchase 774,189 shares of common stock during the first quarter of 2026.

The Evolution of Ingevity

Ingevity is transforming into a more focused specialty chemicals business by selling off secondary assets and settling legacy legal disputes. Its move away from non-core operations simplifies its business model while focusing on higher-margin renewable materials.
