CALDIC ANNUAL REPORT - 2016
Evolve
“To develop increasingly, or to
cause something or someone
to develop increasingly”
This year’s theme Evolve has its roots in the Latin word volvere,
meaning “to roll” or “to turn around”. According to the Oxford
dictionary, current senses stem from a notion of “opening out”,
giving rise to the sense “development”.
Rushing into things is not our style; we thoroughly think things through
before acting. Evolve is a reflection of our solid strategy, representing
a long-term vision and a commitment to steady organic growth.
We are not just building and expanding on a solid base for ourselves;
we are also very much focused on contributing to the ongoing,
long-term business success and steady growth of our customers.

Preface
As we look back on 2016 we can say that it was one of the most fruitful years in the
history of our company. Through several acquisitions in the past few years, we significantly
expanded our food and chemical activities in North America and Europe. As expected,
2016 was the year when we started to reap the benefits of these acquisitions. Thanks
to the commitment and close cooperation among colleagues, the integration of these
companies proceeded very smoothly. Apart from this, we continued to pursue our strategy
to further stimulate organic growth. We aim to achieve this by working together closely with
our partners, drawing on our knowledge and experience, our extensive network, and our
ability to continuously innovate as we contribute to their long-term business success.
As a company, we emphasize a strategic way
of thinking, always conscious of where we are
heading, but without losing sight of the everevolving markets we serve. Although we are
confident that we are on the right track, we
do realize this is no reason for complacency.
Evolution is only possible through motion;
therefore standing still is simply not an option.
By continuously analyzing the market and
responding to trends and developments, we
know where to spot opportunities and we are
always aware of our customers’ needs.
With regard to achieving our goals, we maintain
a clear focus and have the right tools at our
disposal. In order to work from a solid base, we
6
have invested in internal processes to further
align our way of working throughout the company
and to improve efficiency. As an example, we
have continued to install a number of powerful
IT tools across our companies. And furthermore,
we have launched a new corporate website that
truly reflects our corporate identity.
Caldic is active in many different markets. To
support our growth strategy we decided to focus
our efforts for growth on several specific areas
in these markets. Within the Industrial market we
created a new position: Business Development
Director Base Chemicals for Europe, a position
that will help us to expand our footprint in Base
chemicals and reinforce existing partnerships.
CALDIC ANNUAL REPORT - 2016
In Health and Personal Care we increased our
brand awareness within the market by exhibiting
at the world’s largest pharma trade show,
and further emphasized our capabilities as a
full service distributor. As for our food related
activities, we continued our work with functional
food ingredients by experimenting with innovative
and healthy ingredients solutions.
We are delighted to present our Annual Report
2016. In this report, we have compiled the
highlights of the past year. This year’s theme is
Evolve. Evolution is the gradual development
of something, from a simple to a more complex
form. This beautifully covers the path we have
chosen and will continue to pursue in the years
to come.
At Caldic Techniek we invested in our production
process, allowing us to work more efficiently and
to meet the clients’ expectations even better than
we did in the past.
We are thankful to all of Caldic’s employees and
partners who together contribute to this growth.
It goes without saying that we would not have
been able to achieve these successes without
their knowledge, dedication and professionalism.
Together with them we foresee a bright future.

Caldic at a Glance
We are Caldic
Caldic is a full-service solution provider for the
global Industrial, Health & Personal Care, and
Food markets. Our company was established in
1970 and has adhered to a sustainable business
model with a long-term vision, an approach that
has enabled us to exceed our most ambitious
goals. As a privately held company we have
continually evolved to stay relevant, innovative,
and competitive. That is how we have reached
the solid position we occupy today.
With entities in Europe, North America and
Asia-Pacific, in 2016 we counted among us
over a 1,000 colleagues working in 23 companies
in 17 countries, distributing via 42 offices,
warehouses, application centers, and production
and distribution sites.
Caldic’s strength lies in its global network
combined with local expertise, offering the
flexibility to answer local needs and build
domestic partnerships. Operating with our own
warehouses, production facilities, test centers,
and technical expertise, we provide tailored
solutions that contribute to our customers’
businesses. If a customer needs a standard
product or service we naturally can fulfill this
8
request, but we prefer to deliver something
that exceeds their expectations. We do this by
listening to our customers, not just by asking
them what they need to make their business
flourish but also by anticipating and by taking
the initiative. We say what we do and we do
what we say, we work closely with and for our
customers, and we always act with integrity.
Ambitions
When it comes to our ambitions, we are in no way
limited by country borders or markets. We focus
primarily on the B2B market, but we maintain a
broad perspective and we look beyond products
and raw materials.
At Caldic we all share a common purpose and
a corporate culture. A culture that encourages
thinking out of the box and focuses on creative
solutions, developed in partnership with our
customers and suppliers. We can only build
strong, trusting relationships with suppliers,
employees and customers by being a reliable
and professional partner. A partner for the
long term.
CALDIC ANNUAL REPORT - 2016
“As a privately held
company we have
continually evolved to
stay relevant, innovative
and competitive”
QHSE
Caldic is committed to the continuous
improvement of our standards on Quality,
Health, Safety, and the Environment. It is a
principle that applies to every employee at
every location throughout our company,
anywhere in the world. These standards
have been established based on the concern
CALDIC AT A GLANCE
for the quality of our processes, safety
and health of our employees, partners and
customers, and protection of the environment.
They are essential for the successful
management and future growth of our business,
not to mention the best interests of Caldic’s
customers and partners.
9
Maintaining the highest standards on health,
safety, and the environment not only ensures
that we deliver added value to our partners,
but also serves as an incentive in our quest
to outperform the competition and to secure
our reputation as an evolving, future-oriented
company. Naturally, we integrate compliance
into our processes, knowing that doing the
right thing is also doing the smart thing for
our business and our customers.
10
With these standards in mind, business activities
are carried out in such a way that any impact on
Quality, Health, Safety or Environment is reduced
to a minimum. In 2016, we further explored this
path by choosing greener energy and alternative
bio-based products. And all the while, we
were achieving the same high quality as in the
past, while either reducing the impact on the
environment or switching from traditional raw
materials to far more sustainable sources.
CALDIC ANNUAL REPORT - 2016
One of these green initiatives is our cooperation
with an industrial biotechnology and renewable
chemicals company. Thanks to this distribution
agreement, we have expanded our portfolio
with the introduction of bio-based, high purity
n-butanol and acetone.
Another activity we undertook in order to
contribute to a greener and cleaner environment
is the remediation of some of our sites in The
Netherlands, France, Belgium and the United
Kingdom where we have ceased production. In
this remediation program we are using the most
advanced techniques to eliminate any existing
impact on the environment.
Quality and safety are also of extreme
importance when it comes to food ingredients.
Caldic provides its customers with high quality
products by adhering to the best control
standards and regulations, such as ISO 22000
and FSSC 22000, overseen by accredited
agencies and based on the best management
systems.
Putting safety procedures to the ultimate test
Despite all our efforts to ensure safety, we can
never be a hundred percent certain that an
incident will never occur at our facilities. On July
19th 2016, while unloading methanol from a
ship to the storage tank there was an explosion
in one of our methanol storage tanks at Caldic
Chemie Europoort (Rotterdam, the Netherlands).
Fortunately there were no personal injuries or
damage to the environment and within one hour
the situation was under control.
Not only did our procedure to handle emergency
situations prove to work particularly well. Our
technical facilities, such as the alarm system
and cooling installation proved their value at this
crucial moment. A special thanks goes out to
our competent employees, who were thoroughly
trained and instructed to deal with this type of
situation. Because of their professional response
under pressure, this incident was handled
perfectly and completely in line with both our
QHSE standards and the standards prescribed
by the authorities.
In addition, Caldic pays attention to its
surroundings and especially to the residents
living near our production sites and facilities.
An example of this policy is the construction of
a new entrance at the Caldic site in Germany.
By purchasing an adjacent plot we removed
the traffic flow of chemical products from a
residential area, improving safety and the quality
of life in our neighborhood.

Organic Growth
in 2016
Everything we do reflects a long-term philosophy. At Caldic we make decisions that
together lay a solid foundation. This foundation enables us to be successful, not only
now but also in the future. We invest in the future by investing in our people, property
and in our companies around the world. We believe a solid organization can only exist
and evolve by focusing on the future. We continued this strategy throughout 2016,
investing in several of our companies and hereby further stimulating organic growth.
New access road at
Caldic Deutschland
After a year of hard work, a new access road
for our plant at Caldic Deutschland Chemie B.V.
was officially opened. The project comprises
a new access road, a new loading ramp, an
order pickup area for general cargo, an order
pickup area for materials that are categorized
as hazardous to the aquatic environment
and a multipurpose area for those hazardous
materials. The reason for this new access road
was that the old entrance gate was located
in a Düsseldorf residential area. This new
access road has resulted in less traffic, and
accordingly a more pleasant living environment
in the neighborhood, because all vehicles are
now entering the site via an industrial area.
Along with those benefits for our neighbors,
18
the project has also resulted in improved safety
on-site, as there is a better overview of trucks
entering and leaving the facility.
Increasing production
capacity and efficiency
at Caldic Techniek
At Caldic Techniek B.V. we noticed an increased
demand for both shorter delivery time and smaller
production runs. Meeting those needs required
more flexibility from our side. A logical move then
was to analyze at which points our production
process could be improved, with the final goal to
CALDIC ANNUAL REPORT - 2016
increase production capacity and efficiency. In
response, a new industrial sawing machine was
added to the first part of our production line.
This new machine is producing less waste and
has a higher output, making the process more
efficient. While the previous machine had its fair
share of breakdowns, we are pleased to report
that since the installation of the new sawing
machine, no outage has been reported. In the
second part of the production process, two
rather old conventional machines for reworking
the pulleys were replaced by newer ones with
ORGANIC GROWTH IN 2016
higher capacity and accuracy as well as greater
functionality. One consequence of producing in
smaller series is relatively high costs for machine
set-up. That is why we invested in a brand
new CNC (Computer Numeric Control) turning
machine, fully equipped to minimize these setup
costs. Since our objective is to become more
flexible, we included a function for gear cutting
and for special timing pulleys on this machine.
With this new turning machine we will expand our
product portfolio and we are now able to produce
larger products.
19
Our gear cutting machine excels in gear
hobbing, cutting until the intended shape and
precise dimensions of the teeth are achieved.
With a view to increasing output, we also
invested in new lubrication technology and
tooling. In addition, we improved workplace
control and efficiency by adding new storage
cabinets for tooling.
Thanks to the innovative storage technology
we implemented some years ago at Caldic
Techniek, we now make the most of the limited
space we have. It means more products
can be stored with the same amount of floor
space, while advanced handling equipment
makes retrieval fast and effortless. In order to
further improve efficiency we have expanded
our storage system with order picking
handling and a packing table. By adding these
modules to the system, we have created a
more logical flow of incoming and outgoing
goods. Additionally we have invested in smart
software, facilitating batch picking, allowing
operators to fulfill multiple orders at the same
time and significantly increasing productivity.
Raising the Caldic
Nederland plant to
the next level
At our production site in Roosendaal, which
forms part of Caldic Nederland, we continued
the program of updating our mixing facilities
to state-of-the-art technologies. With the
changes of the past year and those that will
come, we aim to raise the plant to a higher
level, facilitating throughput and increasing
production capacity. As a result we are already
able to offer a wider range of solutions to our
customers and suppliers.
20
The existing filling station has been completely
renovated, the roof has been replaced
and lighting improved where needed. The
workspace is now equipped with an excellent
ventilation system and a brand new compressor
that will supply air precisely as needed to the
filling station and pumps. A set of three outer
tanks is now ready for use for the storage of,
for example, glycerin and for filling intermediate
bulk containers.
In addition, all sorts of modifications and
improvements were undertaken in terms of
weighing, dosing and discharging of chemicals.
For instance, we further updated our mixing
facilities, enabling us to mix larger batches at a
time and accordingly, speeding up the process
and increasing efficiency. A new weighbridge
was built, mounted permanently on a solid
foundation with an impermeable floor. This
bridge allows us to weigh the vehicles at the
site, with the option for registration.
CALDIC ANNUAL REPORT - 2016
The entire Roosendaal site is now equipped
with new concrete slabs and surrounded by a
new fence, with access via two new gateways.
On the safety front, we have made an important
improvement by connecting the fire alarm and
intrusion detection system to an alarm center.
By making use of toolboxes, the on-site QHSE
manager maintains a dialogue with the team
about job instructions, legal requirements and
safety aspects. This way of working allows
people on the work floor to give direct feedback,
which makes it easier to improve work processes
and safety at the same time.
ORGANIC GROWTH IN 2016
Expanding capacity at
Caldic Canada to support
a key business partner
At the Caldic Canada Inc. site in Vancouver
we invested in a liquid sugar packing line.
This means that now all Canadian sites have
their own manufacturing activities, which
increases our overall output. The line is capable
of packing 500 gram bottles and four liter jugs.
The project was initiated to support one of our
key business partners in their efforts to grow their
business. Caldic was selected on the basis of
our partnership and our high quality operations,
reflected in the fact that all sites have achieved
the GFSI (Global Food Safety Initiative) Level 2
accreditation. Also through innovation we are
able to support further development of their
product line in the future.

CALDIC ANNUAL REPORT - 2016
Industrial
Chemicals
At Caldic we have a long history in the supply of chemicals for industrial applications.
Over the years, Caldic evolved into a company committed to meeting customer challenges.
Not only do we act as a middleman, engaging in the distribution of industrial chemicals,
but by working closely with our customers, we develop and deliver an extensive range of
innovative technologies and industrial solutions. These solutions can be specific and often
quite unique. Think of formulations, packaging, production and storage. Besides Base
chemicals we also produce high value Specialty chemicals. Essential products for Coatings
and Construction, Plastics and Rubber and Water Treatment form part of our wide product
portfolio.
High purity gas-to-liquid
technology
Only the best products are good enough for
us at Caldic. We do not only sell commodity
products; instead we deliver solutions that
comply with our customers’ needs. That is
why the development process is so important.
Before the implementation of a product, we
visit our customers to see how their processes
are designed. After elaborate testing and
analyzing we present a tailored solution which
we implement at a customer’s facility. We then
INDUSTRIAL CHEMICALS
carefully monitor the results and twist and tweak
where needed. Technical support is naturally part
of our way of working.
A new technology we have introduced is Calstar:
a high purity gas-to-liquid (GTL) technology. This
innovative fluid technology converts natural gas,
the cleanest burning fossil fuel, into high-quality
liquid products. The reason natural gas is used
is that it is abundant, versatile and affordable.
25
Optimizing a beer brewing
process with defoamers
GTL products offer a number of advantages.
First of all, they are colorless and odorless.
Furthermore, unlike crude oil, they contain almost
no impurities like sulfur and nitrogen. Because of
Calstar’s synthetic composition, we were able to
improve the performance of solvents for a wide
variety of applications involving raw materials for
everyday necessities such as plastics, detergents
and cosmetics. GTL is also used in agricultural
and burning applications.
One of our customers is a producer of
wallpaper coverings and Plastisol, a mixture
of PVC particles in a liquid plasticizer, used for
example as a coating for outdoor applications.
This customer needed a product that would
save both time and money. In the production
process, the customer blended two products
manufactured by competitors in order to achieve
the optimal technical characteristics required for
their products. Not only was this an unwieldy
time-consuming process; the quality of the final
product was also unacceptably inconsistent.
Calstar offered an ideal alternative. Our customer
could use Calstar instead of the two products
produced by our competitors to achieve the
desired characteristics. This resulted in a
cost-effective production process, saving our
customer both time and money.
26
At first glance it seems peculiar, putting
something in fermenting beer to control foam.
Of course opinions about whether or not a beer
head on a pint is desirable depend on one’s
origins, but in general a beer is supposed to
have at least a small head of foam. The head
improves the flavor and gives off an aroma
that enhances the beer-drinking experience.
However, in the production process of beer,
foaming is an unwanted phenomenon. This is
where anti-foaming agents or defoamers prove
to be very useful. They prevent beer spills, but
they also contribute to the safety of employees.
You would not want a kettle of boiling wort foam
overflowing! And the good news is: the use
of defoamers during the brewing process has
absolutely no negative effect on the final product.
If it is to your liking, the beer will still have that
pearly white head of foam.
Three years ago Caldic introduced its range of
silicone defoamers under our own Calsil brand.
With the Calsil range we focus in part on foodrelated industries, attempting to bridge the gap
between the industrial and food-related activities
within the Caldic group. The goal here is to
learn from one another and inspire each other,
emphasizing our out-of-the-box mentality. In
2016, Caldic entered into a strategic partnership,
which allowed us to expand our anti-foaming
agent portfolio with non-silicone defoamers.
We now offer a wide range of products which
can be applied to control the complete water
cycle within the Food industry.
CALDIC ANNUAL REPORT - 2016
One of our customers, a leading player in
the Food and Beverages industry, needed a
customized defoamer for the beer-brewing
process. Brewers are dealing with price increases
for raw materials, packaging, and energy, so
maintaining a reasonable profit margin is a real
challenge. The key is to improve efficiency by
finding ways to reduce costs and cut down
on waste. This can be accomplished by using
process aids such as anti-foaming agents.
In close collaboration with our customer, after
testing, analyzing and observing their production
process, we were able to select the right
defoamer, tailored to their specific needs.
In this way we contributed to the optimization
of their production process and at the same
time to a higher grade of food safety.
INDUSTRIAL CHEMICALS
“Defoamers
prevent beer
spills, but they
also contribute
to the safety of
employees.”
27
“While people increasingly focus
on the quality of the floor, the
time required to complete a job
is also extremely important.”
New technologies for
a better environment
Sustainability is an important metric, not only for
the Industrial market but also for the Health and
Personal Care market. The demand for green,
sustainable products is growing and we are well
aware of the fact that as we exhaust fossil fuel
resources, the costs of these fuels is bound
to increase. We feel obliged to respond to the
energy challenges – indeed, to the challenges of
limited resources in general – by searching for
28
alternative resources. We believe that renewable
ingredients are essential for the future success
of our customers in these evolving sectors.
Therefore, in 2016 Caldic entered into a
partnership with Green Biologics, an industrial
biotechnology and renewable chemicals
company based in the United Kingdom. With
the distribution agreement we have with Green
CALDIC ANNUAL REPORT - 2016
Biologics, we have expanded our product
portfolio with bio-based, high purity solvents
like acetone and n-butanol, enabling us to serve
customers in Europe, Africa and the Middle East.
Acetone and n-butanol are used in a number
of key markets including coatings, adhesives,
sealants and elastomers, household, industrial
and institutional cleaners, personal care, food
ingredients and energy chemicals.
Good things happening
underfoot: flooring at the
Alfa Romeo Museum in
Arese, Italy
One of the applications we offer within the field
of Construction is an additive for the screed
used in flooring. While people certainly – and
increasingly – focus on the quality of the floor, the
time required to complete a job is also extremely
important. That is why we have seen increased
demand for special products that address the
internal and external factors a floor is exposed to
– the quality considerations – while also meeting
customer expectations with respect to the very
limited drying time of the screed. Consistent with
our commitment to meeting the most daunting
INDUSTRIAL CHEMICALS
challenges, we have developed new solutions
that deliver on the demands for quality and fastdrying screed.
Thanks to our company in Italy, which is working
together closely with Knopp GmbH, a premium
supplier of additives for sand and cement
screeds, we have become a market leader in
providing fast-drying and enhanced floor screed.
On one of our most recent projects, we had
the privilege to work on the renovation of the
Alfa Romeo museum in Arese, Italy. Built on an
impressive total surface area of 4,800 m2 spread
over six levels, the exhibits trace the design of
Alfa Romeo vehicles as they evolved into the
models available in today’s market. As part of
the extensive reconstruction measures required
for the project, various screed works had to be
carried out.
For this specific case, the renovation of an
existing building, we needed to take several
factors into account, such as the degree of
humidity and the weight and hardness of the
screed. Together with our partner we tested
and constantly checked for consistent quality
standards in order to meet the requirements
of our customer and offer them an appropriate
solution.

Health and
Personal Care
With our experience in the distribution of Base and Specialty chemicals, Caldic has evolved
into a serious player in the Health and Personal Care market. With our team of experts who
have deep knowledge of what is happening in crucially important markets like Pharma,
Personal Care and Detergents and Cleaners, we are constantly monitoring market trends
and are on top of every new development in these sectors.
Whether it is the reformulation of an existing
product or the complex synthesis of new active
ingredients, we arrive at innovative solutions that
respond to new market demands by working
closely with our partners. Over the years we have
built a large and solid network encompassing
both our own companies as well as partnerships
with producers through which we are able to offer
an extensive portfolio of synergistic products:
from intermediates and excipients to solvents
and API’s (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients).
With our local know-how we support our
customers in the processing of any raw material
or pharmaceutical ingredient and offer the right
solution for their specific situation.
What truly distinguishes us is the accompanying
services we offer, such as handling, testing and
certification according to Good Manufacturing
Practices (GMP) requirements. Our deep (local)
know-how of regulatory and legal requirements is
of great importance, as products have to comply
HEALTH AND PERSONAL CARE
with international safety and quality regulations.
Apart from this we have our own White Room
Facility, where we process and pack propylene
glycol and glycerin, two excipients that are often
used in liquid pharmaceutical formulations. This
white room guarantees our customer high quality
products and precludes the introduction of any
contaminants during product processing. We
are currently planning to expand these facilities
with a White Room intended for flammable
products. Here, once again, our goal is to
help our customers to meet any challenges
they may encounter at all stages in the
development and production process,
up to and including logistical
challenges.

Boosting our presence
in the Pharmaceutical
Industry
Because we are aiming to further expand our
market share in Health and Personal Care, in
October 2016 we exhibited at CPhI Worldwide,
the world’s largest Pharma trade show. Every
sector of the pharmaceutical market was
represented under one roof and an astonishing
42,856 people attended the 27th edition in
Barcelona. With our attendance we increased
brand awareness within this market, and further
emphasized our capabilities as a distributor,
offering a wide portfolio of Base chemicals,
Specialty products and accompanying services.
Attending CPhI Worldwide was a very effective
way to establish new business relationships,
meet with global partners and keep abreast
of the latest trends in the industry. We look back
on a very successful first CPhI experience and
will attend the next edition.

Renewable Chemicals:
The Green Alternative
From surface coatings to nail polish remover and
lipstick, we may not always be aware of them,
but chemicals are everywhere. They are used in
many products we use on a day-to-day basis.
In the past, these chemicals were mainly made
from synthetic components. However, as we
mentioned in the previous chapter, the market
for “green” products is growing, and with that
growth, the urgency to develop sustainable
alternatives to traditional materials is steadily
increasing. Sustainability is an important metric,
not only for the Industrial market but also for
the Health and Personal Care market.
As we noted in the previous chapter, consistent
with our intention to offer products based
on renewable resources, we have entered
into a partnership with Green Biologics. This
partnership should help us to deliver sustainable,
bio-based products not just to our industrial
customers, but to customers in the Health and
Personal Care sector as well.
CALDIC ANNUAL REPORT - 2016
“Together with our supply
partners we aim to move
the global economy
towards a more
sustainable future.”
In particular, we are acting as the exclusive Green
Biologics European distributor for n-butanol and
acetone, both of which are produced through
the fermentation of sugars from renewable
feedstocks. n-Butanol is a four-carbon alcohol
that is a clear, colorless, flammable and neutral
liquid with a characteristic banana-like odor.
The medium volatility and restricted miscibility
in water of n-butanol make it useful as both a
solvent and a formulated ingredient in Cosmetic
and Personal Care products. Aside from its use
as a solvent, alcohol plasticizer, and additive
in formulated consumer products, n-butanol
is commonly used for the manufacturing of
esters utilized for fragrance, skincare and
hair care products. Cosmetic products that
utilize n-butanol in their formulations include
eye makeup, foundations, lipsticks, nail care
products, personal hygiene products, shaving
creams, and moisturizers.
Acetone is a three-carbon symmetrical ketone
that is one of the most widely used industrial and
laboratory solvents. The compound is a clear,
HEALTH AND PERSONAL CARE
colorless, flammable, volatile liquid with a low
boiling point, recognized for its rapid evaporation
and its faint aromatic, sweet odor. A hallmark of
acetone’s utility is its absolute miscibility with
water and most organic solvents. Additionally,
it is increasingly being used as a chemical
intermediate for the production of functionalized
compounds. While most commonly recognized
as a solvent, acetone can be a valuable feedstock
for the production of diverse functionalized
materials. Direct applications include surface
coatings, films, adhesives, cleaning fluids, and
laboratory research. Cosmetic products that
utilize acetone range from the primary ingredient
of some nail polish removers, nail treatments,
skin lighteners, and hairspray to personal care
products such as wound treatments and foot
care.
It is safe to say that we expect the use of
renewable chemicals to be the standard for the
future. Together with our supply partners we aim
to move the global economy towards a more
sustainable future.

CALDIC ANNUAL REPORT - 2016
Food
Since 2010 Caldic has taken some huge steps forward in the Food business. Before
2010, the majority of our business revolved around chemicals. However, thanks to several
strategic acquisitions, nearly half of our revenue is now derived from food-related activities.
One of these acquisitions took place in 2015,
when we acquired the Danish R2 Group, a
renowned company in the Nordic food and
chemical markets. The actual integration took
place in 2016, with a reorganization of the
R2 Group that resulted in the establishment
of Caldic Denmark and Caldic Ingredients
Denmark. Thanks to the commitment and
close cooperation among colleagues who
complemented and reinforced each other, it
turned out to be a very successful integration.
It allowed us to further expand our footprint;
we continue to slowly but steadily evolve and
to strengthen our position in the food business.
An important reason that we have seen success
with these strategic acquisitions is that we have
made a subtle, but important change to our
business model. We came to the conclusion
that our previous focus on product groups did
not fully meet our needs in today’s environment.
That is why we have now created market
FOOD
specialist teams, consisting of people who know
the local trends and client needs like no one else.
They are capable of inspiring our customers and
suppliers, offering unique solutions instead of
standard products.
Since the Food market is continuously changing
and responding to consumer needs, keeping up
with these market trends is simply not enough.
People are far more conscious of what they
feed themselves and their loved ones than they
were ten years ago. Nowadays, it is all about
eating and staying healthy. That is why we
see growing consumer interest in the healthenhancing roles of specific foods – what experts
call functional foods. We want to stay ahead of
these developments so we keep close track of
these food trends. That way we are able to offer
our customers the right solutions at the right
time and assist them in responding in a timely
fashion to trends with successful new product
developments.

Omega-3 from algae
We often hear that oily fish are a good source
of vitamins A and D, and that they are rich
in omega-3 fatty acids. For this reason the
consumption of oily fish can be beneficial to
humans, helping to prevent cardiovascular
diseases or reducing the pain caused by
inflammatory conditions such as arthritis.
It might come as a surprise, but the fact is that
even though fish are a rich dietary source of
omega-3 oils, they do not synthesize the oils
themselves. Fish mainly obtain these oils from
the (micro)algae in their diets. So instead of
netting and hooking faster than the fish can
reproduce and driving entire fish populations
to collapse, why not use the original source of
these beneficial omega-3 oils?
Over the years, algae have sparked interest in
the food market. They are seen as a superfood
product that is slowly emerging due to their
nutritional value, as they are rich in protein, fiber,
vitamins, minerals, carotenoids, antioxidants,
essential amino acids and fatty acids like
omega-3. Since we are constantly in search
of viable market niches in which we can find
new opportunities for our customers to grow a
40
profitable business, we noticed that functional
blends offer the best and most viable solutions.
That is why we carried out several experiments
with algae powder in the past year. Algae powder
is a versatile product that can be used in several
applications such as yoghurt drinks, pasta
and cookie dough. The challenge with algae
is to mask the fishy seaweed taste and create
a product that is both visually appealing and
feels pleasant in the mouth. This requires the
development of innovative product combinations
created in our own test kitchens, which we then
test thoroughly until we are completely satisfied
with the final product.
Embracing meat
alternatives
Conventionally produced meat has quite a
number of environmental and health drawbacks.
For example, in order to produce one kilogram
of boneless beef, a producer needs 6.5 kilograms
of grain, 36 kilograms of roughage, and at
least 155 liters of water (only for drinking and
servicing). Just to produce the feed, on average
about 15,300 liters of water is needed. That
means that the water footprint of one kilogram
of beef comes to a shocking 15,500 liters of
water. This is one of the reasons why the appeal
for vegan products is expanding beyond the
limited group of people who choose not to eat
animal products for ethical reasons. These so
called flexitarians are seeking healthier, cleaner
and greener foods and want to reduce their
meat consumption for environmental purposes.
Flexitarians, or semi-vegetarians, follow a plantbased diet that is often supplemented with
meat substitutes and then, on occasion, meat
products.
CALDIC ANNUAL REPORT - 2016
A logical step for us was to support product
innovation for our customers by offering
products that would meet this demand for
meat substitutes. Caldic developed whole food
concepts to replace hamburgers, meat balls,
and sausages with non-meat and vegetable
alternatives. Besides single ingredients from our
concepts, we also provide complete dry blend
solutions to which only water has to be added.
Depending on which kind of main source of
vegetable protein our customer prefers to use,
we can adjust our solutions. For example, we
can use texturized plant proteins, vegetables,
or bean pulp as a main source for these meat
substitutes. Then, for each type of raw ingredient
we use we may need a different natural stabilizing
solution. In addition we have identified some
ingredients in our portfolio that have turned out to
be the key to meeting the challenges of delivering
satisfactory taste and texture for these vegan and
vegetarian applications. For example, in some
of the applications water retention is critical for
binding the ingredients together (emulsification)
and creating an appealing bite. By continuously
monitoring the formulation we can, for instance,
make a sausage from the very wide range of
source materials that our customer may have
in mind.
The evolution of nutritional
supplements
There is a notable shift in mindset towards
healthier lifestyles built around good nutrition
and physical activity. A growing number of
consumers, including seniors and millennials, are
choosing to incorporate nutrition supplements
and products into their regular routines. The
FOOD
demand for plant-based proteins is on the rise,
with ingredients like pea and hemp proteins
popping up everywhere – not only in meat
alternatives but also in potato chips, nutrition
bars and powders for smoothies.
On trend, Caldic developed a vegan protein
beverage that responded to market demands
for sustainability, animal welfare, and allergen
awareness, while offering an appealing flavor and
performance for mainstream market penetration.
Our Vegan Protein Beverage Blend is a functional
protein drink designed with caffeine from green
tea, a natural source that will provide energy
when consumed prior to working out. The
beverage was designed with a wide range of
carefully selected plant-based proteins derived
from materials such as rice, oats and pulses.
The synergy between these protein sources
delivers a complete range of benefits, such as the
promotion of muscle and bone health, lowered
blood pressure and a boost to the immune
system. In addition, protein is known to induce
satiety. Protein beverages are now widely used
for their anti-aging, cardiovascular health and
weight loss benefits. The Caldic Vegan Protein
Beverage can be consumed on-the-go as a
pre- and post-workout beverage or simply as
part of a meal.

Energy and Power
Transmission
At Caldic Techniek, our mission is to find the most economical solution for our customers,
working in close cooperation with them to achieve ultimate functionality. Looking at market
developments, we see that our customers are changing along with the changing market.
As our products and services need to contribute to our customers’ business in the most
efficient way possible, it is incumbent upon us to continuously develop ourselves, and that
is what we have done.
For speedy and timely deliveries to our
customers we have implemented a lean order
picking system, resulting in doubling our order
picking capacity. We have invested in educating
our people, so that they are aware of the latest
technological developments and are able to
deliver unique solutions. In addition, we have
invested in several machines over the past year,
allowing us to offer our customers the best
solutions when it comes to timing belt drives,
generators, controls, mechanical power, and
conveyor equipment. We deliver, install and offer
support when it comes to the most advanced
Power Management Systems (PMS) for all sorts
of vessels. For example, in 2016 we provided the
PMS for a luxurious sailing yacht called Ghost;
the yacht’s ambitious owner was planning to sail
around the world and anything short of perfection
was unacceptable. So when we detected a few
flaws that had been overlooked in the preliminary
ENERGY AND POWER TRANSMISSION
design, we worked in close collaboration with
our customer and our PMS supplier to develop
and deliver a final customized solution. With this
reliable, state-of-the-art system and the ongoing
support we provided on location, we managed to
make yet another customer happy.
Aboard the Africa Mercy
Each year the Africa Mercy, the largest nongovernmental hospital ship in the world, visits
another African country to provide medical
services to the world’s poor. The Africa Mercy
has meeting and work spaces as well as berths
for an average crew of 450. Volunteers from over
45 nations have served onboard this ship, which
was acquired in 1999 and built specifically for
Mercy Ships, a global charitable organization.
45
The reason this organization works with ships
is because it is the most efficient platform to
deliver a hospital to regions where clean water,
electricity, medical facilities and personnel are
limited or nonexistent. And, because more
than fifty percent of the world’s population lives
within hundred miles of the coast, Mercy Ships
can reach more people in need of medical care.
The 80-bed hospital includes five operating
theatres, recovery rooms, Intensive Care
units, and low dependency wards. Additional
facilities include a CT Scanner, X-Ray
equipment, laboratory services, a Coolscope
for remote diagnosis, and an onboard satellite
communication system for the transmission
of diagnoses and other data. It is not hard to
imagine how a power breakdown would affect
this ship. To preclude any kind of electrical
outage, marine vessels work with Power
Management Systems.
46
A Power Management System controls all
elements of the electrical system of a marine
vessel, to ensure that it operates safely and
efficiently. In the past, the Africa Mercy had
regularly suffered from an unstable power
supply and that is where Caldic Techniek was
able to play a constructive role. We proposed
replacement of the malfunctioning PMS with a
new system that would be more user-friendly
in terms of configuration and day-to-day-use.
Our specialist went to Durban, South Africa for
ten days for the commissioning and fine-tuning of
the system. He spent the first three days making
the PMS ready for use and then the remaining
days of his stay training the crew. Thanks to
this new – and crucially – dependable Power
Management System, the Africa Mercy is more
effective in helping those that the vessel and
its staff serve and is now completely set for
the future.
CALDIC ANNUAL REPORT - 2016
Chocolate Pulley
Another of Caldic Techniek’s activities is the
production of timing pulleys. We own and
operate several CNC (Computer Numeric Control)
production machines equipped with automatic
feeding capability and robots for off-loading. With
these assets, we can compete on level footing
with any player in the field when it comes to
both small and large production runs. Apart from
these advanced machines, with our conventional
machines we can easily modify standard pulleys
based on customers’ drawings. These standard
pulleys are always at our customers’ disposal
thanks to our large warehouse at Caldic Techniek
in Rotterdam, the Netherlands.
ENERGY AND POWER TRANSMISSION
Customers often approach us with matters that
require very specific solutions. This was recently
the case with a customer in the chocolate
industry. Chocolate is quite a sticky product
and when it cools down, it hardens, resulting in
clotted chocolate. Most of the time this occurs
on the tooth side of the pulley, which results
in the timing belt slipping off the pulley and
the machine jamming. In order to prevent this,
Caldic Techniek designed a new type of pulley by
modifying the regular pulley design and adding
special chambers and channels. In this way, the
chocolate – still in liquid state – can be pushed
out of the contact area.

Our People
We operate in 17 countries around the world, with a decentralized structure – thinking
globally and acting locally. The diversity of our work force reflects our global footprint.
We come from many backgrounds and cultures, with different working styles and
personalities. At Caldic, however, we all share a common purpose and a corporate
culture. A culture that encourages thinking out of the box and focuses on creative
solutions, developed in partnership with our customers and suppliers. We encourage
our people to take the initiative and give them a sense of responsibility for the
implementation of their ideas.
Akofa Togbonou
Trainee
Caldic Deutschland
What are you studying and what is the
connection between your studies and the
activities of Caldic as a company?
I started my apprenticeship at Caldic
Deutschland Chemie B.V. in 2014. I’m trained
to be a merchant in wholesale and export trade.
In Germany the apprenticeship is a mixture of
theoretical knowledge in school for two days
per week and practical periods in a company.
In school they largely follow certain themes,
like how to advise customers, how to conduct
negotiations, and how to manage logistics. The
apprenticeship ends after two and a half years
with a written and oral exam at the Chamber of
Industry and Commerce.
Can you tell us more about your job and the
department you are working in?
Caldic Deutschland offers a variety of
products, which are sold by different divisions.
The company is divided into several sales
48
departments: Specialties, Furex, Base Chemicals,
Coatings & Plastics, and Water Treatment &
Energy. Since May 2016 I have been working at
the Coatings & Plastics Department as a Sales
Assistant. Our main products are used in the
construction, plastics, coatings, and lacquer
industries.
What have you learned at Caldic? What makes
your job so interesting?
It’s really interesting to get to know the products
and how they make a difference in our everyday
life. I’m learning different things step by step.
One example is that I got to know the use of
titanium dioxide in the lacquer industry. The
more titanium dioxide there is in wall paint, the
higher the coverage capacity. At the same time,
titanium dioxide content influences the price.
This is one example on how everyday situations
are becoming clear to me. Now, when I’m in a
hardware store and I see various types of wall
paint and prices I understand the difference.
CALDIC ANNUAL REPORT - 2016
Michel van den Heuvel
How long have you been working at Caldic and
what is your professional background?
I started working for Caldic in January 2006 as
Logistics Manager and as Port Facility Security
Officer in accordance with the ISPS International
Ship and Port Facility Security Code. I studied
at the Rotterdam Transport College. After my
graduation, I worked in the liquid transportation
industry, starting as a Sales Manager, and later
on as General Manager, where I was responsible
for the Benelux, France and the UK.
addition, I was attracted by the potential growth
of the company. I fill a number of different roles
and meet new challenges every day. As Logistics
Manager, my team and I have to make sure that
our feedstock is available in time to ensure we
can continue production without interruption.
We also have to ensure that the correct products
leave on time and that they are properly
packaged, not to mention that we ship them to
the right destinations. As the Port Facility Security
Officer, I am responsible for the compliance and
integrity of our terminal with respect of the ISPS
code, a security protocol that was installed after
“9/11”. This is mandatory in order to be allowed
to receive ocean-going ships.
Can you give us an idea about your job at Caldic
Chemie Europoort and the people working there?
The reason I joined the Caldic Chemie team in
Europoort was not only the challenge that this
new path could bring me. It was also because
I realized that I feel more comfortable working
with others on a team. The warm and friendly
atmosphere of the entire team made me feel
good about the job right from the start. In
What motivates you to go to work every day?
I like my work a lot, and I’m still learning new
things every day. Although our background is
different than that of most of the Caldic entities in
terms of both the business itself and the volumes
involved, we feel strongly connected to the
Caldic organization, and I don’t just mean that we
share the same logo. My motto is: A day without
laughter is a day not being at Caldic!

Apiradee Limchairoaj
Division Manager Automotive Fluids
Caldic Thailand
How would you describe your career at Caldic
Thailand?
I have always worked in logistics and supply
chain management. In previous jobs I was
engaged in sourcing, importation and managing
all oversea suppliers. I started working as Supply
Chain Manager at Caldic Thailand in December
2013. My current role at Caldic is especially
challenging because I am involved on the
commercial side as well as with logistics. When I
first started working at Caldic, I was responsible
for an end-to-end process of brake fluid for one
of our key customers. At that point we had just
started working with a new blending facility and
new filling machine. I took care of all packaging
supply, the production plan, transportation and
the supply to our customer. One and a half years
later, after my first project ended, I was given
the responsibility for the management of all
automotive customers and the suppliers of raw
materials and packaging, which allowed me to
see all aspects of the automotive business.
Can you tell us more about your job and the team
you are working with?
I’m responsible for both the supply chain and
the commercial part. As we have our own plant
50
producing brake fluids and coolants, one of
our advantages is our flexibility to answer the
customer’s needs. I have to keep a close eye on
the needs of suppliers, customers, and our own
production, filling and warehouse teams. My job
is to make sure everything runs smoothly at the
same time, always according to all requirements.
When there is a problem at any point along this
chain, it can affect the other parts as well, so it is
key to solve the problem as soon as possible.
What is a perfect day at Caldic for you?
At Caldic Thailand they allow us to come up
with new ideas, create new things, make our
own decisions and at the same time assume
the responsibility for the consequences. That
is what makes my job so interesting! I really
enjoy finding the right solutions to meet the
customers’ needs. Whenever a customer comes
to me with new requirements, it is not a matter
of “can or can’t we do this?” in my discussions
with my colleagues. We talk about the “how”
and “what if”. As I have to manage the whole
process, I always work closely with all teams:
the blending, filling, laboratory and warehouse
teams. I listen to their ideas and opinions before
making a decision. With this way of working we
are constantly evolving as a team. Especially
this year we increased our capabilities in many
ways, expanding our business into new markets,
exporting to neighboring countries, meeting very
CALDIC ANNUAL REPORT - 2016
high demand by running production cycles of 24
hours for months on end, and even investing in a
new filling machine for greater capacity! When all
of these developments succeed and everything is
running smoothly, I call it a perfect day!
Daniel Trönnberg
Machine Operator
Caldic Sweden
Can you tell us what you did before you started
working at Caldic?
For 22 years, I worked as a goldsmith. During the
last twelve years of my career as a goldsmith,
I worked at a small goldsmith company, but I
felt like I needed a new challenge. I have always
been eager to learn new things and I have always
wanted to evolve, not only as a person but also
as an employee. I found a new challenge around
two and a half years ago at Caldic Sweden,
where I started working as a machine operator.
What made you decide to work for Caldic?
What appealed to me the most was the people
working there. Since it is not a massive factory
with thousands of employees, I knew that I was
going to work on a relatively small team. This
was one of the decisive factors and I decided to
go for it. It turned out to be the right decision!
The people I work with at Caldic are very friendly.
OUR PEOPLE
We’re quite a close group, always looking out for
each other and helping where needed.
Can you tell us more about your job as a machine
operator?
My job is quite multi-faceted, which is another
reason I like what I do. As I mentioned before,
I need a challenge in my daily tasks, and
this is definitely the case at Caldic. My main
responsibility is Machine 90, a combined
packing machine consisting of two parts. The
first machine in the process is a form-, fill- and
seal machine in which we are currently packing
diet powder. But basically we handle all sorts
of ingredients, such as porridge and dried food
powder. We pack these powders in small paper
bags. Afterwards, these bags are passed on to
the end-of-line packing machine, where they
are packed in capsules. I supervise the entire
packing process: from checking if the stampedon weight and dates are correct to detecting any
improperly sealed bags. Besides this I receive
orders, check if all necessities for a specific order
are in stock and then pick these up with a forklift
in our warehouse. On top of that me and my
colleagues are responsible for the maintenance
and repairs of the machinery. You can imagine
that not a single work day is boring!
