China-based UniteChem Group, a global supplier of light stabilisers, UV absorbers and other related products, is showing its broad and growing range of performance additives that, thanks to the company’s local European presence are now also a major force in the European performance additives market. Moreover, backed by major recent investments in UniteChem’s development and manufacturing capacities, including a fully equipped second R&D and Innovation Center in Shanghai, the company is working to meet the future needs of its global customers with new and innovative solutions. The Group regularly allocates five percent of its total revenue to R&D and has also gone public at Shanghai’s Main Stock Market to secure the funding of its expanding production base.
The company is also adding new capacities for intermediates and finished products at various sites in China; downstream supply security is ensured by an expanding logistics network, including a state-of-the art warehouse in Antwerp.
