WACKER to Expand Nünchritz Site with New Liquid Resins Unit
Scheduled to go on stream at the end of 2022, the new unit will reportedly close important material loops and increase the cost effectiveness of WACKER’s integrated production system.
WACKER Group recently announced that it has started to build a liquid resins unit at its site in Nünchritz, Germany. The unit will supply key upstream products for formulating silicone-based building protection agents and binders for exterior paints and industrial coatings. At the moment, only WACKER’s Burghausen site produces these substances.
Scheduled to go on stream at the end of 2022, the new unit will reportedly close important material loops and increase the cost effectiveness of WACKER’s integrated production system. Capital spending amounts to approximately €30 million (~ $36.5 million).
