In its own words

Ecovyst Inc. (“Ecovyst” or the “Company”), formerly PQ Group Holdings Inc., was incorporated in Delaware on August 7, 2015. We trace our roots to the late 1800s with our first sulfuric acid plant and the beginning of our oldest customer relationship.

We are a leading integrated provider of virgin and regenerated sulfuric acid products and services. We believe that our business contributes to improving the sustainability of the environment.

We are a leader in our business, holding what we estimate to be a number one or number two supply share position for products and services that generated more than 95% of our 2025 sales. We believe that our footprint and efficient network of strategically located manufacturing and regeneration facilities provide us with a strong competitive advantage in serving our customers.

Our products and services typically represent a small portion of our customers’ overall end-product costs, yet are critical to their processes. With our long history of customer partnerships and our reputation for providing reliable, quality products and services, we believe we deliver significant value to our customers, as demonstrated by our profit margins.
