                 GRACE REPORTS SECOND QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS

COLUMBIA, Maryland, July 19, 2005 -- W. R. Grace & Co. (NYSE: GRA) today
reported an increase in 2005 second quarter sales of 18.2%, with sales totaling
$676.5 million compared with $572.4 million in the prior year quarter. The
increase in sales was attributable to higher unit volumes in all key geographic
regions, improved product mix, selling price increases to partially offset cost
inflation, acquisitions and favorable currency translation. Grace reported
second quarter net income of $32.7 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, compared
with net income of $21.3 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, in the second
quarter of 2004. Net income for the second quarter of 2005 includes income from
two Bankruptcy Court approved insurance settlements, offset by higher interest
expense to conform to rates in Grace's proposed Chapter 11 plan of
reorganization and higher legal costs related to Chapter 11 and other litigation
proceedings. Pre-tax income from core operations in the second quarter of 2005
was $56.6 million compared with $49.3 million in the second quarter of 2004, a
14.8% increase. The pre-tax results from core operations reflect added profit
from higher sales and from productivity improvements, which together more than
offset increases in raw materials, energy and certain operating expenses.

"Our company continued to deliver strong sales and earnings growth in the second
quarter," said Grace's President and Chief Executive Officer Fred Festa. "Higher
sales more than offset double-digit increases in the cost of raw materials and
energy. We expect raw material costs to continue at high rates over the rest of
the year and the favorable effects of currency and acquisitions to moderate. In
response, we will continue our ongoing efforts to grow our revenue base and to
lower our cost structure by integrating our operations and improving the
effectiveness of our business processes."

For the first six months of 2005, Grace reported sales of $1,279.7 million, a
17.3% increase over 2004. The year-to-date increase was largely attributable to
the same favorable factors that affected second quarter sales. Net income
through June 2005 was $35.8 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, compared with
net income of $37.1 million, or

$0.56 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 2004. Net income was down
slightly period-over-period, as higher 2005 pre-tax income from core operations
was more than offset by higher interest expense and legal costs. Core operating
income was $96.3 million for the first six months of 2005 compared with $87.8
million in the prior year period, a 9.7% increase. The increase was principally
attributable to strong sales volume growth (including acquisitions and a better
product mix), higher selling prices to partially offset the impact of cost
inflation, and favorable foreign currency translation.

CORE OPERATIONS
---------------

DAVISON CHEMICALS

Second quarter sales for the Davison Chemicals segment were $358.9 million, up
20.5% from the prior year quarter, mainly reflecting strong global demand for
transportation fuels, higher selling prices to partially offset increases in raw
materials and energy costs, and acquisitions. Excluding the effects of favorable
currency translation, sales were up 18.1%. Sales of refining technologies
products, which include fluid cracking catalysts, hydroprocessing catalysts and
performance additives used in petroleum refining, were $213.3 million in the
second quarter, up 26.6% compared with the prior year quarter. The increase
resulted from volume gains in response to high worldwide demand for catalysts
that enhance refinery through-put, upgrade crude oil feedstocks and help produce
cleaner fuels, and added revenue from the contractual pass-through of commodity
metals costs. Sales of specialty materials products, which include silica-based
engineered materials, specialty catalysts, and products used for drug discovery
and purification, were $145.6 million, up 12.6% compared with the second quarter
of 2004. The increase was primarily attributable to sales from the acquisition
of Alltech International Holdings, Inc. completed in August 2004, increases in
selling prices and a better product sales mix to address raw material inflation,
and favorable currency translation; offset by lower sales of engineered
materials in Europe as a result of lower economic activity in parts of that
region.

                                      -3-


Operating income of the Davison Chemicals segment for the second quarter of 2005
was $43.1 million compared with $37.5 million in the 2004 second quarter, a
14.9% increase. Operating margin was 12.0%, about 0.6 percentage points lower
than the prior year quarter. The increase in operating income was attributable
to higher sales volume and a more profitable sales mix in refining technologies
products, selling price increases to partially offset higher raw materials and
energy costs, accretive acquisition results, and favorable foreign currency
translation and commodity contracts; offset by costs to further integrate
business functions and processes.

Sales of the Davison Chemicals segment for the first six months of 2005 were
$693.6 million, up 22.0% from 2004 (19.6% after accounting for favorable
currency translation). Year-to-date operating income was $80.8 million, compared
with $69.5 million for the prior year, a 16.3% increase, with operating margins
at 11.6% compared with 12.2% last year. Year-to-date operating results reflect
similar economic conditions and cost factors as those experienced in the second
quarter.

PERFORMANCE CHEMICALS

Second quarter sales for the Performance Chemicals segment were $317.6 million,
up 15.7% from the prior year quarter primarily a result of strong growth in unit
volumes worldwide and increases in selling prices to offset higher raw material
costs. Favorable currency translation accounted for 2.5 percentage points of the
increase. Sales of specialty construction chemicals, which include concrete
admixtures, cement additives and masonry products, were $159.4 million, up 18.1%
versus the year-ago quarter. Sales were up in all regions, mainly reflecting
geographic expansion and other growth initiatives, and stronger construction
activity, particularly in North America. Sales of specialty building materials,
which include waterproofing and fire protection products, were $79.2 million, up
14.6% compared with the second quarter of 2004. The second quarter reflects
strong sales of roofing underlayments, particularly in North America, added
sales of waterproofing materials from the acquisition of the TRI-FLEX 30(R)
synthetic roofing underlayment product line in December 2004, and higher sales
of specialty below-grade waterproofing worldwide; partially offset by lower
sales of fire protection products compared with a strong second quarter of 2004.
Sales of specialty sealants and coatings, used in rigid food packaging, were
$79.0 million, up 12.1% compared with the second quarter of 2004. Sales were up
in all regions due to higher volumes and selling price

                                      -4-


increases implemented to offset higher raw material costs, with sales of
Daraform(R) closure sealants and can coatings accounting for most of the growth.

Operating income for the Performance Chemicals segment was $45.7 million in the
second quarter of 2005 compared with $38.9 million for 2004, a 17.5% increase.
Operating margin of 14.4% was 0.2 percentage points higher than the second
quarter of last year. Higher operating income and margins were primarily a
result of added volume and selling price increases to partially offset higher
raw material costs.

Sales of the Performance Chemicals segment for the six months ended June 2005
were $586.1 million, up 12.2% from 2004 (9.8% excluding currency translation
effects). Year-to-date operating income was $73.0 million compared with $66.5
million for the prior year, a 9.8% increase, reflecting strong sales volumes in
all geographic regions, higher selling prices implemented to offset inflation in
raw material costs, and positive results from productivity and cost containment
initiatives. Operating margin was 12.5% compared with 12.7% for the first six
months of last year.


CORPORATE COSTS

Second quarter corporate costs related to core operations were $32.2 million
compared with $27.1 million in the prior year quarter, and $57.5 million
year-to-date compared with $48.2 million last year. The second quarter and
year-to-date increases were attributable primarily to higher pension expense
that reflects updated assumptions for expected life-spans, the longevity of
Grace's active work force, and amortization of deferred costs related to capital
market returns in recent years.


OTHER MATTERS
-------------

The second quarter financial results include approximately $20 million of income
and cash proceeds from the settlement of two disputes with insurance carrier
groups with respect to coverage for past environmental remediation and
asbestos-related costs. Such settlements, which were approved by the Bankruptcy
Court, are reflected in "Other (income) expense" and in "Pre-tax income (loss)
from non-core activities".

                                       -5-

As previously disclosed, Grace and current and former employees are defendants
in a criminal proceeding related to former vermiculite mining operations in
Montana, and Grace and two employees are defendants in a civil suit which was
filed in the second quarter of 2005 related to the clean-up of a former
vermiculite processing site in New Jersey. Grace's second quarter and
year-to-date financial statements include $3.2 million and $9.2 million,
respectively, of legal costs (included as part of "Selling, general and
administrative expenses" and "Pre-tax income (loss) from noncore activities")
for the defense of the Company and the named individuals with respect to these
lawsuits. At this time, Grace cannot predict the outcome of these lawsuits or
the extent of any financial impact. Defense costs are being expensed as
incurred.

Also as previously disclosed, Grace's amended proposed plan of reorganization
provides for interest on general unsecured claims (not payable until a plan is
confirmed) at rates that generally range from 4.19% to 6.09%. Such rates were
applied to Grace's estimate of eligible claims for the six months ended June 30,
2005, increasing year-to-date interest expense by approximately $20 million.

CASH FLOW AND LIQUIDITY

Grace's net cash flow from operating activities was a negative ($78.8) million
for the first six months of 2005, compared with a positive cash flow of $85.8
million for the comparable period of 2004. The year-to-date 2005 cash flow
included a payment of $90.0 million to resolve U.S. federal tax return audits
for the 1993-1996 tax periods, a payment of $21.4 million to resolve an
environmental contingency at a formerly owned site, and a payment of $10.5
million to roll-forward dollar-to-euro currency contracts. Year-to-date 2005
pre-tax income from core operations before depreciation and amortization was
$153.7 million, 8.8% higher than 2004, a result of the higher income from core
operations described above. Cash used for investing activities was $16.0 million
for the first six months of 2005, reflecting capital replacements and
acquisition investments, partially offset by proceeds from the termination of
life insurance policies.

At June 30, 2005, Grace had available liquidity in the form of cash ($404.0
million), net cash value of life insurance ($81.3 million) and unused credit
under its debtor-in-possession facility ($212.5 million). Grace believes that
these sources and amounts of liquidity are sufficient to support its business
operations, strategic initiatives and Chapter 11 proceedings for the foreseeable
future.

CHAPTER 11 PROCEEDINGS
----------------------

On April 2, 2001, Grace and 61 of its United States subsidiaries and affiliates,
including its primary U.S. operating subsidiary W. R. Grace & Co.-Conn., filed
voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States
Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Delaware (the "Filing"). Grace's non-U.S. subsidiaries and certain of its U.S.
subsidiaries were not part of the Filing. Since the Filing, all motions
necessary to conduct normal business activities have been approved by the
Bankruptcy Court.

On November 13, 2004, Grace filed a plan of reorganization, as well as several
associated documents, including a disclosure statement, with the Bankruptcy
Court. On January 13, 2005, Grace filed an amended plan of reorganization (the
"Plan") and related documents to address certain objections of creditors and
other interested parties. The amended Plan is supported by committees
representing general unsecured creditors and equity holders, but is not
supported by committees representing asbestos personal injury claimants and
asbestos property damage claimants. The Bankruptcy Court proceedings are
currently focused on the estimation of Grace's asbestos-related liabilities, a
process that Grace expects to extend into 2006.

Most of Grace's noncore liabilities and contingencies (including
asbestos-related litigation, environmental claims, tax matters and other
obligations) are subject to compromise under the Chapter 11 process. The Chapter
11 proceedings, including related litigation and the claims valuation process,
could result in allowable claims that differ materially from recorded amounts.
Grace will adjust its estimates of allowable claims as facts come to light
during the Chapter 11 process that justify a change, and as Chapter 11
proceedings establish court-accepted measures of Grace's noncore liabilities.
See Grace's recent Securities and Exchange Commission filings for discussion of
noncore liabilities and contingencies.

Note (a): Neither pre-tax income from core operations nor pre-tax income from
core operations before depreciation and amortization purport to represent income
or cash flow as defined under generally accepted accounting principles, and
should not be considered an alternative to such measures as an indicator of the
Company's performance. These measures are provided to distinguish operating
results of Grace's current business base from results and related assets and
liabilities of past businesses, discontinued products and corporate legacies.
Core operations comprise the financial results of Davison Chemicals, Performance
Chemicals, and the costs of corporate activities that directly or indirectly
support business operations. In contrast, noncore activities comprise all other
events and transactions not directly related to the generation of operating
revenue or the support of core operations and generally related to Grace's
former operations and products.
