Haldor Topsoe officially changes name

Biobased diesel and hydrogen process technology provider Haldor Topsoe A/S made the decision April 7 at its annual general meeting to officially change the company name to Topsoe A/S.

“The world is changing, and so are we,” the company stated. “Today, the biggest global challenge is climate change, and we have made it our vision to become recognized as the global leader in carbon emission reduction technologies by 2024. Recently, we have created a new brand to front our vision and our journey to decarbonization at scale—still building on the strong and invaluable legacy of Dr. Haldor Topsøe.”

The new, abbreviated name is one that is “already widely used, relatable, and a name that stands out,” the company stated.

Denmark-based Topsoe was founded in 1940 and supplies technology, catalysts, and services for “worldwide energy transition,” according to the company.
