It has been announced that Basildon Chemicals has been purchased by the KCC Corporation of Korea, opening up new opportunities for both companies.
KCC gains a company with a history of excellence in silicone emulsification and long running industry acceptance, while Basildon gains the backing of one of the world’s fastest growing primary silicone manufacturers, with great ambitions for expansion over the coming years. “With Basildon Chemical, KCC strengthens its service value chain. Our clients have access to the exact solution in the personal care industry, with world-class specialty silicone fluids, as well as bespoke emulsions & dispersions”, said Philippe Rovere, KCC Europe.
