Case

Our global alkoxylation network expanded with addition of Singapore plant

In late 2022, we expanded our global footprint to Southeast Asia for specialty surfactant alkoxylation through an asset purchase on Jurong Island, Singapore.

The acquired plant will enhance Nouryon’s ability to serve growing regional customer demand in crop protection, personal care, cleaning goods, natural resources, paints, and coatings.


The new site adds to Nouryon’s manufacturing operations in Southeast Asia as well as to our existing alkoxylation network of manufacturing facilities in China, Sweden, and the US. It supports our Company’s emerging markets growth strategy and is backed by a leadership and business team based in Singapore.
