Sales volumes increased 3.3% year over year, while selling prices had a positive 4.8% effect. Arkema said volume growth benefited from continued momentum in its Sartomer business in Europe and the United States, particularly in industrial coatings, electronics and medical applications.

Rheology additives also posted positive trends during the quarter, particularly in water-management applications. Resin sales were broadly stable compared with the prior-year period.

Arkema attributed the increase in segment EBITDA to continued strong performance in UV-curing applications and rheology additives, along with a more favorable product mix and operating discipline.

Across the company, third-quarter sales increased 8.1% to €2.36 billion and EBITDA increased 7% to €332.3 million. Arkema said higher pricing helped offset continued energy and raw-material inflation.

The company reported better volumes in the United States, difficult conditions in Europe and softer demand in Asia.

Arkema maintained its full-year outlook for slightly higher EBITDA compared with 2025 at constant exchange rates.

Arkema’s results provide direct evidence of growth in two important coatings raw-material categories. The combination of 3.3% volume growth and higher pricing shows that Coating Solutions’ gains were not driven by price alone, while the performance of UV-curing technologies highlights continued momentum in energy-curable applications.
