Michelman invests in Singapore facility

The investment complements acquisition activity and organic growth by Michelman in Asia, and will allow the company to better serve its expanding customer base, particularly in China and India.

Steven Wong, Michelman’s vice president and managing director, Asia-Pacific, said: ‘With a decade of robust growth in Asia, this investment was needed to allow us to continue developing and delivering advanced materials that meet the needs of our customers. With our increased capacity in Singapore, coupled with manufacturing facilities in the US, Germany and Belgium, and joint venture manufacturing in Japan, we can satisfy demand faster than ever, across the entire Asia-Pacific region.’

With its recent acquisition of long-time sales partner Supack in Mumbai, India, the opening of Michelman India, and a growing sales and support staff and laboratory facility at its Shanghai, China location, Michelman has continued to aggressively enhance its ability to serve customers in Asia.
