Albis Plastic will exclusively distribute Eastman Chemical’s full copolyester product portfolio in France and Poland.

Albis has had a close relationship with Eastman in many other European countries including Germany, the UK and Scandinavia for more than 20 years and this new cooperation is a natural extension to the existing relationship.

Ian Mills, CSO at Albis, said: “Eastman’s exciting product range is fully compatible and complementary to the Albis portfolio and fits perfectly with our philosophy to provide customers with technical solutions which create added value for them.”

“This includes The Glass Polymer range of cosmetic materials, which offer innovative design and application possibilities for luxury packaging, or the Eastman Tritan copolyester range which raises the bar in many medical device applications.”

Reinier de Graaf, Regional Business Director Speciality Plastics EMEA for Eastman, said: “Albis is a well-established strategic partner and ideally positioned to extend our brand coverage in all our key market segments in France and Poland.”

“In working closely with Albis as a distribution partner in this expanded territory we are underlining our pan-European distribution strategy, allowing us to serve beyond our current reach.”
