A.Schulman will extend its distribution deal with Solvay for the high performance polymers Ixef polyarylamide, Omnix and Kalix.
The agreement has secured A.Schulman’s service of Solvay’s polymers to Europe, Middle-East and Africa, boosting their relationship that started 25 years ago in Germany to distribute Ixef PARA.

Horst Klink, Vice President of A. Schulman’s Performance Materials for the EMEA region, said: “We are proud that Solvay has awarded us the expanded distribution of these high-performance polymers.”
“Over the last 20 years, we have developed a strong strategic partnership with Solvay. In addition to [high performance polymers] products, we distribute its melt-processable fluoropolymers, including Solef PVDF, Halar ECTFE; Algoflon and Polymist PTFE powders.
“Our close collaboration covers an increasing number of developmental projects. The added territories reinforce our ability to offer an even higher service level to our customers.”
A.Schulman, based in Ohio, USA, recently expanded a deal with API and last year reported sales of approximately $2.5billion (€2.3billion).
