About Nabaltec AG

Nabaltec AG is a German specialty materials company listed in Frankfurt/Xetra (DAX/MDAX/SDAX segments via the Open Market/Scale framework), with headquarters in Schwandorf, Germany. Founded in 1994 as Nabaltec GmbH, the company initially built its business around the acquisition of the specialty oxides division from VAW aluminium AG. It was converted into a public limited company in 2006 and listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange the same year. Nabaltec’s industrial model is based on processing mineral raw materials, primarily aluminium hydroxide and aluminium oxide, into high-value additives used in safety-critical and regulation-driven end markets. ([nabaltec.de](https://www.nabaltec.de/unternehmen/historie?utm_source=openai)) The group operates mainly through two segments. The Functional Fillers division includes halogen-free flame-retardant fillers and functional additives used in cables, electrical equipment and electronic devices, where fire safety and smoke suppression are important performance criteria. The Specialty Alumina segment covers specialty aluminium oxides used in refractory applications, industrial components and other technical uses. Nabaltec also sells boehmite, a product that is particularly relevant for batteries, electric mobility and thermal management applications. Its portfolio includes more than 70 aluminium oxide products, highlighting a niche positioning built on quality, consistency and customer-specific formulations. ([nabaltec.de](https://www.nabaltec.de/en/press/?utm_source=openai)) From a competitive standpoint, Nabaltec positions itself as one of the world’s leading suppliers of environmentally friendly functional fillers and specialty oxides based on mineral raw materials. The company states that more than 75% of sales are generated outside Germany and that it operates internationally through production and commercial entities in Germany, the United States, Japan and China. This footprint gives Nabaltec exposure to major consumption centers while preserving a strong industrial base in Germany. ([nabaltec.de](https://www.nabaltec.de/en/company/we-at-nabaltec/?utm_source=openai)) Recent developments support a quality industrial profile, though one that remains exposed to industrial cycles. In 2024, group revenue reached EUR 203.6 million, while operating profitability improved. For 2025, management guided to revenue growth of 3% to 5% and an EBIT margin of 7% to 9%. The 2024 annual report also points to stable demand across most product areas, but still-soft boehmite volumes amid intense competition and a slower-than-expected buildout of battery supply chains. Nabaltec has nevertheless indicated plans to double annual boehmite capacity at Schwandorf, which could become an important growth lever if end-market demand accelerates. As a German listed company, it is also subject to BaFin disclosure rules under MAR Article 19 for directors’ dealings.
