ICI invests in new Brazil adhesives manufacturing facility

14-Dec-2005 - Brazil

A new manufacturing facility in Brazil has been opened by ICI to meet growing demand for industrial adhesives in the country. The investment introduces local provision of adhesives, some previously imported by the company for the woodworking, packaging and paper converting sectors, some for export, and some to support growth from marketing programmes to local accounts.

The factory is operated by ICI-subsidiary National Starch and Chemical Company and makes hot-melt, water-based adhesives and emulsion polymers.

The largest of its type in the region, the factory is located at Jundiai, 34 miles north-west of Sao Paulo on a greenfield site owned by ICI that is already scheduled for expansion in output in 2006. National Starch also has plans to build a technical centre and pilot plant on the site for its growing food starch business.
