BREAKING NEWS: Sale of Air Products Polymers Would Change Competitive Landscape for SLPs
LITTLE FALLS, N.J. - Potential buyers for Air Products' polymers business could see themselves leapfrog to the front of the synthetic latex polymer (SLP) market in both the United States and Europe with the purchase of a leading supplier in the vinyl acetate-ethylene (VAE) business.
The company announced its intentions last week to explore the possible sale of its amines and polymers businesses, and analysts from Kline & Company, a global business consulting and market research firm specializing in the chemicals and materials industries, are calling these businesses a smart buy for the right investor.
