LSI, the former Lonza Specialty Ingredients, has taken the name Arxada as of 21 October. Based in Basel, it was launched as an independent business in July after being sold by Lonza, and is headed by Marc Doyle. It has two main businesses: Microbial Control Solutions and Specialty Products Solutions.
The name is a combination of the Latin words for ‘citadel’ and ‘fortress’. “In the same way that a citadel acts as a stronghold or protector, Arxada provides solutions that strengthen the performance of its customers and their products, and help to protect people, places and the planet,” the company claimed.
