Marketing/Company Information
Oberhausen (euro adhoc) - Oxea, a leading international manufacturer of oxo
intermediates and oxo derivatives, has appointed the Rotterdam based IMCD Group
as its exclusive European distributor for its line of Alkyl Amines. These
chemicals are essentials for a variety of uses in industries such as life
sciences or pharmaceuticals. Among others, Alkyl Amines are required for the
manufacturing of rubber additives, polymers, dyes, corrosion inhibitors or fuel
additives. With IMCD as the new distributor Oxea can now better serve the broad
customer base requesting smaller product quantities.
"In IMCD we selected a professional, application and market driven distribution
partner with excellent reputation and technical expertise," said Michael
Harbich, European Marketing Manager at Oxea. "Excellent product quality and
reliable supply have already made us a market leader in the Amines merchant
market. By working with IMCD we strengthen our market position and reach new
customers. This appointment is therefore in line with our strategy to grow our
derivatives business further," he added.
"We very much look forward to this important new partnership with Oxea for the
Alkyl Amines," said Cyrille Mouza, European Product Manager at IMCD "The product
range fits perfectly with our current portfolio and further strengthens our
specialty product offering. Through our proven European product management
model, warehousing and market focused networks we will simplify and enhance the
business for Oxea and offer a premium service to all customers," he continued.
