Volume 91, Issue 15
Lanxess has agreed to acquire PCTS Specialty Chemicals, a Singaporean producer of biocides for water-based paints. Lanxess isn’t disclosing how much it paid for the firm. But it says PCTS employs 20 people, had sales of less than $13 million in 2012, and logs about 60% of its sales in China. PCTS will become part of the German company’s performance chemicals business. Lanxess already employs 380 people in Singapore.
The power is now in your (nitrile gloved) hands
