Mitsubishi Gas Chemicals is set to establish a state-of-the-art resin production facility in Poland, focusing on highly wear-resistant and high-performance resins for automotive and digital appliance components. The plant is scheduled to start operations in 2010, with an estimated maximum investment of 15 billion yen. This marks the first time that the Japanese chemical company has launched a resin production business in Eastern Europe. With Japanese automakers and motor manufacturers increasingly entering markets in Eastern Europe and Russia, this move signals the beginning of significant investments in raw material industries within emerging economies.
The new facility will specialize in producing polyoxymethylene (POM), a high-performance resin known for its excellent wear resistance. POM is ideal for replacing metal in critical parts such as gears, switches, and drive mechanisms in both automobiles and digital home appliances. Its versatility and durability make it a valuable material in modern manufacturing.
In 2008, Mitsubishi Gas Chemicals plans to form a joint venture with a local Polish chemical company. The partnership aims to produce 40,000 tons of polyformaldehyde annually starting in 2010. As part of its broader strategy, the company is allocating over 50% of its capital to adjust its business focus, ensuring long-term growth and competitiveness. Through this joint venture, Mitsubishi Gas Chemicals will receive products in proportion to its investment, reinforcing its presence in the European market and strengthening its supply chain.
