We process and sell refined inorganic products that are sought by  customers for their critical reactivity or specific functionality in markets  such as glass, detergents, chemicals and pulp and paper. In addition,  we produce, purify and market higher value downstream derivatives  into specialized and customer-specific applications. These applications  include electronics, biocides and animal nutrition. American producer of hydrogen peroxide due in part to our broad  product line, geographically-advantaged plant locations, state-of-the- art processing technology and superior customer service. Hydrogen  peroxide represents approximately 65 percent of our peroxygens sales. Our specialty peroxygens business supplies persulfate products primarily  to polymer, printed circuit board, hair care and soil remediation markets.  Peracetic acid is predominantly supplied to the food industry for  biocidal applications. Typically, we compete as a specialty player where  we believe that we are differentiated by our strong technical expertise,  unique process technology, intellectual property and geographic location. Our Alkali Chemicals Division produces natural soda ash. Soda ash  is used by manufacturers in glass, chemical processing and detergent  industries. To lesser degrees, we also produce sodium bicarbonate, caustic  soda and sodium sesquicarbonate. The majority of our alkali sales are  manufactured by and sold through FMC Wyoming Corporation, which  we manage as an integral part of our alkali business and in which we  own shares representing an 87.5 percent economic interest, with the  remaining shares held by two Japanese companies. We have two manufacturing facilities in Spain where we have market  position in zeolites and silicates. We sell zeolites and silicates products  which are used in detergents, car tires, pulp and paper markets. We are  exploring new applications of the zeolite and silicate uses including  water treatment, environmental applications and agricultural markets. Through December 31, 2010 we primarily participated in the following  product areas: soda ash, peroxygens, phosphorus chemicals, zeolites and  silicates. Subsequent to December 31, 2010 and as a result of the Huelva  facility shutdown, our primary product areas are: soda ash, peroxygens,  zeolites and silicates. These products are generally inorganic and are  generally commodities that, in many cases, have few cost-effective  substitutes. Growth is typically a function of industrial production in  developed economies and a function of the rate of industrialization in  developing economies in the export markets. Pricing tends to reflect  the supply and demand balance as producers add or reduce capacity  in response to demand changes. We mine and produce natural soda ash using proprietary, low-cost  mining technologies, such as longwall and solution mining, which  we believe give us the lowest cost position. Our two production sites  in Green River, Wyoming have the name plate capacity to produce  approximately 4.85 million tons of soda ash annually, with approximately  1.3 million tons of this capacity mothballed at December 31, 2010.  During 2009, with the economic downturn resulting in a drop in soda  ash demand, we mothballed the Granger facility and consolidated all  of our soda ash production at the Westvaco facility. Since then, U.S.  export markets have recovered much faster than the U.S. domestic  market, and in January 2011 we announced the restart of our Granger  production at a rate of 500,000 tons per year by July 1, 2011 to satisfy  export demand. We plan to evaluate further production increases at  Granger during 2011. Soda ash is a highly alkaline inorganic chemical essential in the production  of glass and widely used in the production of chemicals, soaps and  detergents, and many other products. Natural soda ash is typically  produced from trona, a natural form of sodium sesquicarbonate,  through mining and chemical processing. Soda ash may also be produced  We produce hydrogen peroxide at production facilities in the  United States, Canada, Spain and the Netherlands. We also participate  in a joint venture company in Thailand. We sell hydrogen peroxide into  the pulp and paper industry, and increasingly to the chemical processing,  environmental, electronics and food industries.
