polymers, coagulants and biomaterial expertise as well as application solutions to China and Asia Pacific markets. It serves Kemira’s strong paper and board customer base and supports Kemira’s water treatment growth initiatives in the region. It has been built and equipped under the highest environmental standards with facilities that remain close to customers and support employee well-being in line with Kemira’s commitment to sustainability and long term strategy.</span></p> <p class="CARTesto"><span lang="EN-GB">«Kemira’s business in Asia-Pacific has grown significantly since our first R&D center was established in China in 2008,» says </span><span class="CARTestoEvidenziato"><span lang="EN-GB">Michelle Xiao</span></span><span lang="EN-GB">, </span><span class="CARTestoEvidenziato"><span lang="EN-GB">Director of Technology, Research & Development for APAC</span></span><span lang="EN-GB">. «With the increasing market need for sustainable materials in China, we have expanded our polymer and biomaterial research capabilities to better serve our customers, and help them stay competitive in the fast-paced, cost-conscious and environmentally focused markets».</span></p> <p class="CARTesto"><span lang="EN-GB">«Our continued investment in equipment and facilities such as our new R&D center in APAC region shows our strong commitment and strategic focus for these markets» says </span><span class="CARTestoEvidenziato"><span lang="EN-GB">Matthew Pixton</span></span><span lang="EN-GB">, </span><span class="CARTestoEvidenziato"><span lang="EN-GB">Chief Technology Officer of Kemira</span></span><span lang="EN-GB">. «This new research and development centre will help us to develop innovative products, and we will focus on meeting the needs of our local customers by providing short delivery times and our global customers working on long-term projects».</span></p> <p class="CARTesto"><span lang="EN-GB">The new center also works closely with Kemira’s Nanjing and Yanzhou sites in China and its Ulsan site in Korea to develop consistent production processes, source new raw materials and end products. It is an integral part of Kemira’s global R&D network, in collaboration with other Kemira research centers based in Espoo (Finland), and in Atlanta (USA) to deliver innovation into global markets.</span></p> <p class="CARTitoletto"><span lang="EN-GB">Kemira evaluates possible closing of its Pierre-Bénite site</span></p> <p class="CARTesto"><span lang="EN-GB">Kemira has started a project to evaluate a </span><span class="CARTestoEvidenziato"><span lang="EN-GB">possible closing</span></span><span lang="EN-GB"> of its </span><span class="CARTestoEvidenziato"><span lang="EN-GB">Pierre-Bénite site</span></span><span lang="EN-GB"> in France, close to Lyon. Pierre-Bénite was part of Kemira’s acquisition of Arkema’s water treatment business in 2007. The site produces ferric chloride and different grades of polyaluminum chloride.</span></p> <p class="CARTesto"><span lang="EN-GB">Unfavourable market conditions together with an increased competition have continuously impacted the economic situation of the Pierre-Bénite site negatively. Despite the numerous improvement efforts that have been implemented in recent years the site profitability has not improved sufficiently.</span></p> <p class="CARTesto"><span lang="EN-GB">As a result, Kemira has started the consultation process with the local works council today, in accordance with French lobar law requirements.</span></p> <p class="CARTesto"><span lang="EN-GB">Kemira remains committed to serving the water treatment market in France and will continue to supply its customers with product deliveries from its existing network.</span></p> </div> <footer> <div class="td-post-source-tags"> </div> <div class="td-post-sharing-bottom"><div class="td-post-sharing-classic"><iframe frameBorder="0" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=https://www.paperindustryworld.com/kemira-opens-its-new-rd-center-in-shanghai/&layout=button_count&show_faces=false&width=105&action=like&colorscheme=light&height=21" style="border:none;
