Grace GmbH

Since its founding in 1832, W. R. Grace & Co. has evolved from a pioneering trading enterprise into an industry leader in catalysts and engineered materials. With a strong legacy of scientific rigor, customer collaboration, and forward-thinking innovation, Grace has built a global manufacturing footprint spanning North America, Latin America, Europe, and Asia. Among its notable innovations are SYLOID® silica products, RANEY® and MAGNAPORE® catalysts, and other materials foundational to industries as varied as coatings, refining, and pharmaceuticals. Over the years, Grace has pushed boundaries—from producing the first microspheroidal silica gels for desiccants to inventing catalysts that drive modern chemical and refining processes. The company stands out for combining historical strengths with modern capabilities: expanded CDMO (contract development & manufacturing) services, digital manufacturing, and advanced material technologies—enabling partners to address evolving regulatory, environmental, and performance demands. Grace remains committed to helping customers navigate global challenges—resource fluctuations, regulatory complexity, and market evolution—while continuing to produce quality materials, catalyze innovation, and prepare industries for what’s next.
