## About Tronox

Tronox is one of the world's largest producers of titanium dioxide pigment, the whitener in paints, plastics and paper, headquartered in Stamford, Connecticut.

A smaller share of titanium feedstock also goes to the titanium metal industry, which serves aerospace and defence.

## Where Tronox operates

Tronox's mineral sands mines are Namakwa and KZN Sands in South Africa and Cooljarloo in Western Australia. Its pigment plants are spread across the United States, Australia, Europe, Saudi Arabia and Brazil.
