We as PCC help where it is needed – for a better future<\/span><\/p>

PCC has been committed to social and community issues for many years – both in the vicinity of our Group headquarters in Duisburg and internationally. Our affiliates also support social initiatives. For example, our US subsidiary PCC Chemax, Inc. in Piedmont, South Carolina, has been a partner of an aid facility for children with disabilities for many years. In total, the PCC Group supported 35 social projects as of the end of fiscal 2024. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

PCC is committed to helping those who urgently need our help. With the construction of a children’s home, which was completed in September 2008, we want to make our contribution to greater social responsibility. \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The power supply for our children’s home – which incidentally bears the Swahili name “uhai”, meaning “life” – was ensured here by installing our own solar system. We also award study scholarships to pave the way for a better future. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
