Welcome to the Degussa Corp. (DCBX) Carbon Black Cars Page.

Degussa is a major player the production of carbon black on a worldwide basis. At least some plants were previously owned by Ashland and previous to that, United. Degussa Corp. and Engineered Carbons Inc. have merged their North American carbon black manufacturing facilities as of January 1, 2002 to form a new company called Degussa Engineered Carbons LP. Plants in the venture are located in Aransas Pass, Baytown, Borger and Orange, Texas; Ivanhoe, Louisiana and Belpaire, Ohio. It is not certain which plants came from Degussa and which ones came from ECI, however, the Ivanhoe, LA plant was a Degussa plant (previously Ashland and United) and the Borger, TX plant is presumabley formerly ECI since they are listed as having been headquartered there.
