Starting December 16, 2021, the Mineral Specialties Division is independent from the SEQENS Group and continues its own journey under the leadership of its management and with the strong support of its current investors/private equity firms.
The entity’s three existing business units, Novacarb (including its upstream and energy production assets), Novabion, and Novabay will pursue their operations and further development under the newly created Humens Group banner.
Who is Humens?
Humens is a long-standing producer of sodium-based mineral additives. The company was founded in 1855.
Our 160 years of experience have led to the development of strong and unique expertise. As a leader in mineral specialties, we produce sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, and derivatives in France and Singapore to address demanding market needs in healthcare, personal care/homecare, food/feed, environmental, and other industries.
Humens is a state-of-the art company that constantly seeks to improve its quality and services to uphold the highest standards to satisfy our clients and partners daily.
We are a human-sized and an entrepreneurial company with 400 passionate, skilled, and dedicated employees.
We are proud to continue contributing to a better world by making people healthier and the planet greener. That is the reason why we named our independent new group Humens.
What is our vision?
“With this new change, our plan is to speed up the continued transformation journey towards industrial asset decarbonation and global growth in high value products to become a pure player on premium segments,” explains Raymond Sinnah, CEO of the Humens Group.
