DSM expands capacity at coating resins plant in Germany
Royal DSM has invested EUR15 million for the expansion of its coating resins plant in Meppen, Germany.
The facility is specialised in the production of liquid polyesters and other specialty resins.
Growth in coil coatings segment
With this expansion, DSM Coating Resins reinforces its position in the can and coil coatings segment and ensures it remains fit for growth in the BPA-free market. It follows strong growth in the can and coil coatings segment in recent years with the growth due, in part to the market shift from epoxy-based packaging coatings towards new BPA-free solutions.
Greater supply flexibility
In particular, the investment will enable greater supply flexibility, the ability to meet growing demand and improved stock management. The investment underlines DSM’s commitment to the sustainability and innovation of the coatings industry and strenghtens its long-term position as a leader in the market.
