Lead in blood levels around the Hoboken plant

Umicore H1 2019 review 6

Lead in blood evolution (average)

CDC individual blood lead reference value in µg/dl

2019 readings historically low, well below 5µg/dl norm. Unexpected increase, despite dust emissions well below the legal norm. Investigations ongoing, exploring sustainable solutions, including the possibility

  • f making an offer to buy certain houses closest to the plant.

Incidents on the Hoboken plant

Fire incidents

Fire in lead refinery in March Small fire on the roof of a waste water treatment section in July Root-cause investigations ongoing, increased focus on prevention and fire protection Continue substantial investments to the environment. Intensify the investment program launched several years ago to further reduce emissions. Reinforce internal organization and further strengthen emergency planning to protect the environment and to minimize the impact on the community.

Long-term growth drivers remain intact

CATALYSIS ENERGY & SURFACE TECHNOLOGIES

Tightening emission norms continue to be on the agenda in key regions, confirming the need for more complex automotive catalyst technologies going forward COVID-19 stimuli plans aimed at a ‘green recovery’ in China and Europe

China: Extension of NEV subsidy plan from 2020 until end 2022 and confirmation of increased mandatory NEV credit targets for 2021-2023 Europe: EU recovery plan predicated on European Green deal, including ambition towards zero-emission mobility. Stimuli packages in several countries (Germany, France, Spain) with subsidies for electrified vehicles RECYCLING

Resource scarcity and complexity of materials Path towards a more circular economy
