Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Revenue [Policy Text Block]

Revenue Recognition—The Company follows the principles-based five step model to recognize revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers and in an amount that reflects the consideration for which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue, net of estimated allowances and returns, is recognized when the Company has completed its performance obligations under a contract and control of the product is transferred to the customer. Substantially all revenue is recognized at the time shipment is made or upon delivery as risk and title to the product transfer to the customer. Sales, value add, and other taxes that are collected concurrently with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. Contract terms for certain transactions, including sales made on a consignment basis, result in the transfer of control of the finished product to the customer prior to the point at which the Company has the right to invoice for the product. In these cases,timing of revenue recognition will differ from the timing of invoicing to customers and will result in the Company recording a contract asset. A contract asset balance of $11 is recorded within “Other current assets” at both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Refer to Note 14 for additional discussion of the Company’s net sales by reportable segment disaggregated by geographic region.

Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and also requires the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. In addition, it requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Subsequent Events, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Subsequent Events—The Company has evaluated events and transactions subsequent to June 30, 2019 through the date of issuance of its unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Cash and Cash Equivalents— The Company considers all highly liquid investments that are purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company’s restricted cash balance of $15 as of both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 represent deposits to secure certain bank guarantees issued to third parties to guarantee potential obligations of the Company primarily related to the completion of tax audits and environmental liabilities. These balances will remain restricted as long as the underlying exposures exist and are included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of “Cash and cash equivalents.”

New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Text Block]

Newly Adopted Accounting Standards

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Board Update No. 2016-02: Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”). ASU 2016-02 supersedes the existing lease guidance in Topic 840. According to the new guidance, all leases, with limited scope exceptions, will be recorded on the balance sheet in the form of a liability to make lease payments (lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The guidance was effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2018.

The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 using a modified retrospective adoption method at January 1, 2019. Under this method of adoption, there is no impact to the comparative Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company also determined that there was no cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company will continue to report periods prior to January 1, 2019 in its financial statements under prior guidance as outlined in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 840, “Leases”. In addition, the Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which allowed the Company to carry forward its historical lease classification. The Company also elected the hindsight practical expedient to determine the lease term for existing leases. Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of right of use assets and offsetting lease liabilities of $105 as of January 1, 2019.

In February 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Board Update No. 2018-02: Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) (“ASU 2018-02”). ASU 2018-02 was issued in response to the United States tax reform legislation, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Tax Reform”), enacted in December 2017. The amendments in ASU 2018-02 allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the new tax legislation. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2018-02 as of January 1, 2019 and it did not have a material impact on the financial statements.

Newly Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13: Financial Instruments - Credit Losses(Topic 820): “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments," (“ASU 2016-13”). The amendments in this update replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. New disclosures are also required with this standard. The standard is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of adopting this standard.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15: Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That is a Service Contract (“ASU 2018-15”). ASU 2018-15 align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The standard is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted and an entity can elect to apply the new guidance on a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of adopting this standard.
