BASF has announced that the company is lifting its declaration of Force Majeure with respect to citral-based aroma chemicals as well as Vitamin A and Vitamin E products for human and animal nutrition .
The citral plant had to be shut down after a fire on March 12, 2014. The company consequently had to declare Force Majeure.
BASF was able to stay within the announced shut-down period of four weeks starting March 19, 2014. Meanwhile, the company said that it was implementing measures to limit the consequences of the situation and was continuously informing customers on its development. Product supply will normalise within the framework of delivery lead times and respective inventory levels, said BASF.
