Wacker starts production of redispersibile powders in China

02-Sep-2005

Wacker Group has inaugurated a spray drying facility for the production of VINNAPAS® redispersible powders in China. The new facility, located in the chemical park of Zhangjiagang (Jiangsu Province) offers world-class technology and capacity. The new site's investment costs, including all infrastructural measures, are estimated at EUR 10 million.

Through its subsidiaries in Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou and Hong Kong, Wacker Polymers has now established a presence in all of China's key economic centers. This ensures optimum levels of collaboration with local customers. A key role in all this is played by Wacker 's Shanghai technical center. It provides all the applied technology services that Wacker PolymersAsian and, above all, Chinese customers need for their growth. The technical center especially renders invaluable assistance in the formulation of dry-mortar blends. Wacker is conducting research into country-specific construction applications and testing local raw materials. It is also collaborating closely with universities, scientific institutes, standards committees and authorities, and thereby making an important contribution to the formulation of standards and guidelines for the use of dry mortars in China.
