Oxea to Expand Production of Carboxylic Acids in Germany

Oxea will build a world-scale production plant for carboxylic acids in Oberhausen, Germany to be completed by the end of 2021. The plant will double the current production capacity for isononanoic acid and increase Oxea’s total production capacity for carboxylic acids by more than 30 percent, the company reported.

“With our new plant, we intend to substantially improve the supply situation for isononanoic acid. Oxea’s increased capacity will further enhance the flexibility of our production platforms, allowing our customers to grow their businesses across the whole acid portfolio. Oxea will additionally set up its own dedicated logistics hub in Asia to support the growth and agility of the Asian market,” said Kyle Hendrix, global commercial director for Carboxylic Acids and Derivatives at Oxea.

Oxea stated that its Oberhausen manufacturing facility offers definitive advantages in speed of construction and integration into the existing production network.  According to Oxea, the construction of this carboxylic acids plant plays an essential role in the company’s growth vision and will continue to improve the manufacturing processes at its acid units.
