Bondalti Chemicals is investing $90 million in its Estarreja plant to install nine electrolyzers and develop a solar farm, aiming to cut greenhouse gas emissions and electricity costs. The company has also proposed a $411 million acquisition of Ercros, which has been approved, potentially doubling Bondalti's chlorine production capacity to 450,000 tons annually.

Bondalti's strategy focuses on sustainability and economies of scale amid a challenging European chemical sector, with goals to achieve 100% renewable energy by 2030. The firm expects synergies from Ercros despite its operational challenges in a competitive market.
