UniteChem’s headquarters in Suqian City in China’s Jiangsu province
Stabilizer maker set on global expansion
With investments in China and Germany, UniteChem is determined to strengthen its global position in light stabilizers for plastics
Opening a second R&D and innovation centre in Shanghai in China and establishing a new sales subsidiary in Düsseldorf in Germany mark the latest global expansion moves by UniteChem, already a world leader in production of light stabilizers and other high value plastic additives. The new Shanghai R&D centre provides extensive testing, analysis and process evaluation support for UniteChem’s global customer base, which includes leading polymer and masterbatch makers and major OEMs, as well as plastic converters and compounders. It more than doubles the company’s existing innovation capacity. The new sales office in Germany will ensure UniteChem can provide the support its growing European customer base expects. The company chose Düsseldorf for its ideal setting in the middle of Central Europe’s chemical industry and its excellent logistical connections to customers across Europe. UniteChem says the new Düsseldorf office will enable it to build closer partnerships with customers in Europe, providing them with enhanced local support in both stabilizer selection and processing. Key target markets cover automotive components, agricultural film and many others.
The European sales entity is underpinned by UniteChem’s collaboration with Leschaco Group, which is a major logistics provider for the global specialty chemicals sector. This partnership sees new warehousing capacity set up at Antwerp in Belgium to ensure reliable and rapid delivery.
Headquartered at Suqian City in China’s Jiangsu province, UniteChem has over the past 20 years established itself as a leading global player in light stabilizers for plastics. It aims to serve “the complete plastics value chain” through close engagement with key players such as compounders and masterbatch producers, as well as upstream polymer manufacturers. With annual sales of around €300m and a workforce of some 1,650 people worldwide, UniteChem is one of China’s largest specialty chemicals companies producing light stabilizers, UV absorbers and other related products. The company operates two state- of-the-art manufacturing plants in China and has two further production facilities under construction. These, together with its network of sales, service and warehousing facilities throughout Asia, the Middle East, Europe and the Americas, position it well for future growth.
The new R&D and innovation centre is equipped with the latest accelerated weathering equipment
