Emery Oleochemicals Seeks Expansion: Building on ‘Unique' Strengths Following Change of Ownership

摘要

Emery Oleochemicals (Selangor, Malaysia), the world's leading producer of oleo- chemicals from natural oils and fats, has faced tough economic conditions since its creation, but it is proving to be resilient. The company was launched in November 2008, when Cognis sold its 50% stake in Cognis Oleochemicals, an equally owned joint venture with Sime Darby Plantation (Kuala Lumpur), to PTT Chemical International, a subsidiary of PTT Chemical (Bangkok). It was renamed Emery Oleochemicals last May.
