In Environmental Protection, we market polymer flocculants for wastewater treatment, which accelerate industrial wastewater sludge sedimentation, and slurry agents used in underground excavation.<\/p>\n
In Construction, we market PPG used in applications such as sofa cushions and heat insulating materials.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In the Environmental Protection segment, sales were weak due to sluggish demand for cationic monomer for polymer flocculants.<\/p>\n
In the Construction segment, sales declined for raw materials for polyurethane foams mainly used in furniture and heat insulating materials and for raw materials for building sealants.<\/p>\n
As a result, total net sales in this segment decreased by 17.8% year on year, to \u00a515,030 million. Operating profit was \u00a5539 million (a decrease of 60.7% year on year).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
