Chemours resumes TiO2 production in Mexico

Wilmington, Delaware – Chemours Co. has resumed the production of titanium dioxide (TiO2) at its production facility in Altamira, Mexico.

The manufacturer suspended operations at the site 31 May in response to a “severe drought impacting much of Mexico” and in compliance with a government request to minimise water intake.

In a statement 24 June, Chemours said that the Mexican government had lifted its restrictions, enabling the company to resume normal operations at the TiO2 manufacturing facility.
