Rhodia invests in speciality surfactant production

摘要

As part of its profitable growth strategy in speciality surfactants, Rhodia SA has announced investments at its Halifax (UK) and University Park (US) industrial sites. The investments at the two sites, formerly part of the Mclntyre Group acquired by Rhodia in 2009 [Focus on Surfactants, Apr 2009], will optimize and increase production capacity and enhance competitiveness, the company says. In the UK, Rhodia plans to consolidate surfactants production lines currently at Leeds and Halifax on a single platform to reinforce its long-term competitive position in Europe.
