Resinex Deutschland GmbH (Sandwiesenstr. 27, D-64665 Alsbach near Darmstadt) is now marketing the polypropylene product range of Montell Bayreuth Chemie GmbH (Kölner Str. 3a, D-65760 Eschborn) in eastern Europe, too. A distribution agreement for Germany sealed in 1997 has been extended to the Czech Republic, Hungary, the Slovak Republic, Slovenia and Croatia. Processors there now have access to Moplen PP standard grades, Adstif” and Adflex” speciality PPs, Astryn”, Hifax” and Higlass” PP compounds and also Hivalloy”, the new rigid and low-temperature impact PP for structural applications, exclusively through Resinex Deutschland.

For Hans-Peter Meyerhoff, managing director of Resinex Deutschland, this step is a logical extension of the distributor´s activities, as many of our local customers have set up production plants in Eastern Europe.” As the market there is developing at a faster-than-average pace, the number of plastics processors is increasing accordingly. Because the same standards now apply in eastern and western Europe, processors must be able to obtain the raw materials, compounds and specialities required for a product at all locations – in the same quality and without delay, he says.

Parent company Resinex NV (B-9420 Erpe Mere) is an international company which has also founded marketing branches in Eastern Europe, among other regions, over the past few years.
