Lanxess aims to add value though innovative chemistry

摘要

"We are working to overcome tight supply," said Gunther Weymans, head of Lanxess TRP unit, commenting on the wider supply/demand picture in an interview during the K2010 exhibition. He added that Lanxess will add capacity in various polymers over the coming months, but said the detail of these investments are not yet decided. He said the speed and scale of the recovery had taken the industry by surprise. In March, Weymans noted that he had said the crisis is over, and he confirmed that it is not only over, but that materials are now short in many areas. "We face a pretty tight situation in epdm, surprisingly tight. Also in cr. Also in nbr," he said.
