Arkema, headquartered in Colombes, France, announced the project to double its UV curable resins production capacity at its Nansha plant in China.
This investment is fully aligned with the Group’s strategy to develop its coating solutions segment with high value-added solutions and reinforce its downstream acrylics activities in Asia. It will enable Arkema to grow its high-performance and solvent-free solutions portfolio for UV curing, marketed under the flagship brand Sartomer®. This new expansion is scheduled to come on stream in the second half of 2023 and will provide regional supply to customers in Asia.
In addition to this new production capacity, which will leverage the most recent process and manufacturing standards, the plant aims at carbon neutral growth thanks to an energy efficiency program, green electricity purchasing and the installation of solar panels.
