Fragrance and Flavours Business at Croda achieves €380 Million in 2025 sales

Resilient business model delivers consistent value and sustained global sales growth.

The Fragrance and Flavours (F&F) business of Croda International Plc, encompassing Iberchem, Parfex, and Scentium, today announced a milestone performance for 2025 with sales growth +15% at constant currency, reaching €380 million. Despite a complex global landscape, the business exceeded financial targets with positive contributions across all three brands.

This year’s success was driven by disciplined execution of the business’ strategic roadmap and continued commercial momentum. Its new sales record represents consistent double-digit growth, underscoring the resilience of a model rooted in deep customer intimacy and portfolio strength. This uplift was supported by a balanced mix of organic expansion with its loyal customer base, and the successful capture of “white space” opportunities, further diversifying the division’s geographic footprint.

In the next year, the division is set to deliver continued growth, supported by a series of strategic initiatives including: the upcoming commissioning of a new site in China, which will establish an extended and new comprehensive hub for R&D and production following our first full R&D and manufacturing site in 2002, and the expansion of Parfex and Iberchem’s production facilities at headquarters to further strengthen capabilities. In addition, recent investments are already generating positive results, with strong performance from Barcelona’s new Creative Centre, Parfex’ R&D centre and the expanded production facilities at Scentium’s headquarters.
