Muelstein, World Largest Polymer Distributer, Joins Omnexus Global eMarketplace
Muehlstein, the largest international distributor of plastics and rubber polymers, has joined Omnexus, the global plastics eMarketplace, as a strategic supplier. The addition of Muehlstein to the Omnexus marketplace represents a rapidly growing list of more than 20 global suppliers creating a single point of connectivity for plastics processors and suppliers.
“As a global leader in polymer distribution, Muehlstein represents a strategic addition to the Omnexus eMarketplace and solidifies our position as the choice for e-procurement in the global plastics industry,” said David Jukes, Omnexus senior vice president. “We can now provide an even greater variety of products to plastics processors in order to meet their complete needs – all through the convenience of a single, neutral location that is truly faster than the telephone or FAX if you deal with multiple suppliers.”
Representing most of the leading polymer producers, Muehlstein markets and distributes 2.4 billion pounds of plastics and rubber products annually to more than 6,000 manufacturers in 72 countries. Muehlstein’s extensive portfolio of products includes polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, polybutadiene, SBR, engineering resins and specialty compounds.
“Muehlstein is constantly striving to bring superior value to our customers,” said Mark Lux, vice president of Muehlstein. “Our current customers are finding efficiencies in using our proprietary Muehlstein.com interactive site, but accounts who deal with multiple suppliers and a multitude of products will ultimately prefer the functionality of the Omnexus eMarketplace. In addition, we look forward to Omnexus bringing us new customers interested in our size, scope, and seamless logistics capabilities.”
