The first quarter started positively, with several customer projects from the 150-strong pipeline moving closer to ramp-up and commercial phase. The Advanced segment showed strong momentum during the period. Outlast® Technologies launched its new product Aersulate®, and Matrix Brands is preparing for its upcoming market introduction. Additionally, another customer within the Advanced segment entered the commercial phase through an initial order of two tonnes of Quartzene®. Negotiations are currently ongoing for a long-term supply agreement, with a potential growth in coming the year. Meanwhile, the project portfolio continues to grow and we received additional traction through our participation in the European Coatings Show in March.
