01/02/2005
The separation of German Lanxess AG from the Bayer Group was accomplished on Friday, January 28, 2005 with the entry of the spin-off of the new chemicals group in the commercial register for Bayer AG. This completes the most fundamental restructuring in Bayer AG's history. The portfolio of Lanxess comprises large parts of Bayer's previous chemicals business and about one third of its former polymers business.
