DyStar to transfer textile chemical production to Nanjing
17/12/2012
The plant in Nanjing started the production of dyes in 2006, and DyStar says it already meets “high global standards of quality, occupational safety and environmental protection”. It has been expanded and almost 14,000 tonnes of textile dyes are now produced in Nanjing each year. The plan for 2013 is to increase production to about 20,000 tonnes.
This transfer will allow for “increased scope in terms of chemical synthesis together with strict quality control in the extensive laboratory facilities”, DyStar said. Simon Collinson, the company’s sales area manager for China, Taiwan and Korea, said the move would enable the company to offer “the highest-quality standards” to customers and chief executive, Harry Dobrowolski, said the move represented “another milestone on our journey to sustainability”.
