Unitechem Group, supplier of light stabilizers for plastics in a broad range of high-end industrial applications, has announced that it is expanding its European footprint with a new sales office in Düsseldorf, Germany. The Group has already been serving its customers throughout Europe over many years and will now make a major investment into Europe as part of its global expansion strategy. The new Düsseldorf office has now been opened and will enable closer partnerships with customers to benefit from Unitechem’s advanced product offering by enhanced local support in stabilizer selection and processing. Key application targets span from automotive components to agricultural films to artificial turfs for sports fields. Unitechem is collaborating with Leschaco Group - a major logistics provider for specialty chemicals - to meet its logistics needs across the continent, including new warehousing in Antwerp (Belgium) to ensure reliable and rapid deliveries.
“With this investment we are significantly strengthening our European presence in line with our strategic commitment to global expansion,” states Junyi Lin, CEO of Unitechem Group. “Based on two state-of-the-art manufacturing plants in China, two further production facilities under construction and a network of warehousing hubs around the world, we are well positioned for growth and meeting the increased demands of global customers for high-performance light stabilizers and other performance additives.” Unitechem has established itself as a global specialist with extensive expertise in the development and production of light stabilizers designed to extend the life of demanding plastic applications. With 20 years of market experience, it serves and collaborates with major leading brands worldwide in a highly dedicated responsive manner and with extraordinary determination to meeting its own productivity and sustainability goals while helping its customers to meet theirs.
“We are very excited to align more closely with our growing customer base in Europe,” says Jan Kreibaum, Unitechem Director for Europe and Senior Industrial Advisor - FountainVest Partners. “The Düsseldorf office will perfectly complement our new warehouse capacities in Antwerp while opening more direct business leads in the region. Customers across Europe will be served by a very committed and agile team with long-standing market experience and industry focus, accelerating the time-to-market of innovative new applications.” Supported by its new Düsseldorf sales office, Unitechem will also show its colors more frequently at important trade shows in Europe.
