Kuraray to Establish a New PVOH Resin Production Facility in the United States
Expanding the Vinyl Acetate Chemical Business on a Global Scale
The establishment of this new facility is in line with the Kuraray Group’s global strategies for its core business of vinyl acetate and PVOH-related products. Following on business expansion in Japan, Singapore and Europe (Germany), this move will secure a fourth advantageously situated production base for the Group, in this case, in North America where shale gas is easy to procure.
Based on proprietary Kuraray production techniques, four production bases can sustainably offer high-quality products on a global scale. The new facility will be able to meet demands for markets in North America and burgeoning Central and South America.
