It is strong in innovation, strong in the market and with a strong workforce.
“Covestro represents a bold new direction and bright future for an innovation-driven polymers company,” said Patrick Thomas, Chief Executive Officer of Bayer
MaterialScience and CEO designate of Covestro. “We are a company that is underpinned by strong and experienced management with a proven track record of excellence and full commitment to value creation. We have loyal and dedicated employees with whom we are confident we can build our future success,” he added.
