 PROFILE
Basic black always suits Cabot, the world's #1 producer of carbon black. A by-product of oil refining, carbon black is used as a reinforcing and pigmenting agent in tires and printing. Cabot also produces fumed silica (an anticaking, thickening, and reinforcing agent), thermoplastic concentrates, tantalum (for electronics), ink-jet colorants, and drilling fluids. The company's markets include the automotive, cosmetics, oil and gas, and printing industries. Cabot has factories in 23 countries. The company owns about 40% of safety products maker Aearo Corp.
