OXEA TO EXPAND PRODUCTION CAPACITIES FOR CARBOXYLIC ACIDS

In view of the surging demand, Oxea GmbH (Monheim am Rhein, Germany; www.oxea-chemicals.com) plans to significantly expand its supply of carboxylic acids in the short to medium term. To this end, the company is already evaluating various strategic options for its worldwide production sites to be able to reliably meet global market demand in the future as well. Carboxylic acids from Oxea are used, among other things, for the production of synthetic lubricants, to improve feed hygiene or as building blocks for antibiotic-free feed additives.
