Wacker continues to strengthen its presence in Southeast Asia and recently inaugurated its expanded technical centre in Singapore. A new laboratory has been built for developing and testing silicone elastomers for growing industries, such as health care and electronics. At the same time, the labs for silicones and polymeric binders dedicated to construction applications have been expanded and newly furnished. The regional competence centre will now provide technical support for customers in the coatings, electronics, personal and health care, textile, automotive and construction industry, among others.
