Clariant breaks ground for a new joint venture facility in Cangzhou, China to meet growing demand for process and light stabilisers
Clariant and Beijing Tiangang Auxiliary Co., Ltd. (Tiangang) held a groundbreaking ceremony in Cangzhou (China), just over 200 km south of Beijing. The ceremony marked the start of the construction of a world-class production facility for stabilisers for plastics and textiles that will form the heart of the joint venture between both parties. The event was marked by a special event with representatives from both companies, as well as local officials.
 
The joint venture between Clariant and Tiangang was established in September 2017, and combines the technology and production knowledge of both companies to provide even better process and light stabilisers for various growing industries in China, including automotive and textiles. China is a key market for Clariant high-end process and light stabilisers, which include the state-of-the-art Nylostab® S-EED® chemistry – invented by the company – a unique multifunctional hindered amine light stabiliser, or HALS. Tiangang, which was founded in 1991, is already an important manufacturer of light stabilisers and UV absorbers, with two plants in China backward integrated with production of key intermediates.
