Kemira Reviewing Options for ChemSolutions

Kemira said it has retained Swedish bank SEB for a process to review strategic options for its ChemSolutions segment. In a push to realign its portfolio, the Finnish chemical company divested ChemSolution' food and pharma businesses and sold its shares in its Sachtleben JV in the first quarter of 2013.
