Viachem Ltd. has been selected by Marubeni Specialty Chemicals
Inc. to provide North American distribution of Asahi Kasei F310 Polyvinylidene
Chloride (PVDC) Resin. Marubeni has transferred all sales, service and
marketing responsibilities for the specialty ingredient from ChemPoint.
Known for its excellent humidity, gas and aroma barrier
properties, Asahi Kasei F310 PVDC Resin is often used to modify atmosphere
packaging for food, protective coatings on metals, and in several other areas
where products need to be protected from their respective environment.
“We’ve tapped Viachem to expand our distribution footprint with
F310 PVDC Resin in North America based on the
company’s trained sales and support staff, as well as service,” said Mark
Mooney, senior sales and marketing manager for Marubeni. “Given the broad range
of applications for F310 PVDC Resin, we want to capitalize on all of the
possible audiences, uses and markets for the product. This partnership with
Viachem allows us to have that bandwidth efficiently and effectively.”
Besides being used for film and paper coatings, F310 PVDC Resin
is also used for ink formulation and metal coating.
