## Kraton commits to strategic realignment.

“Our strategy is clear: focus where we have the greatest impact and drive the most value,” said Minco van Breevoort, President of Kraton Pine Chemicals. “By streamlining operations, we can direct investments toward core Pine Chemical assets and innovation. Our Crude Tall Oil refinery rates will not be impacted by this decision. We will have greater ability to support our customers with Tall Oil Fatty Acid supply.”
