A foundation ceremony for the completed sealing and bonding materials plant, funded by Belgium-based Soudal Group, was recently held in the Taixing Economic Development Zone – located in Taixing city, in East China's Jiangsu province.
The total investment for the plant was 75 million euros ($81.81 million). Soudal's high-performance sealing and bonding materials are said to be high-end specialized and functional chemicals – with high technological content, high added value and low resource consumption.
The plant has utilized the latest in international polymerization reaction technology – adopting information and automation control systems including those from SAP, Siemens PCS7 and MES. It's committed to becoming China's biggest model enterprise in building and industrial sealants.
The implementation of the project is expected to further strengthen the fine chemicals industry supply chain in Taixing, becoming a leading example of China-Europe cooperation in the region.
