OCI Global, the world’s third largest nitrogen fertilizer and ammonia producer, is supplying Röhm, a leading manufacturer of methacrylates, with bio-ammonia for the production of methyl methacrylate (MMA), an important precursor for Plexiglas.
Röhm expands its presence for MMA (Methyl Methacrylate) and PMMA (Polymethyl Methacrylate) production in Asia. China, as the world's largest market for these products, represents a prime opportunity for Röhm's specialized innovations. This development represents a pivotal point in the company's broader expansion efforts.
Germany’s Röhm has begun construction of a capacity expansion in China for its Plexiglas polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) molding compounds. A groundbreaking ceremony took place at the Shanghai site on Jul. 18 and the expanded plant is due to start operating by the second quarter of 2023.
