Clariant presented on this occasion its waxes product line, highlighting grade as anti-settling agent in coating formulation. "This was a great opportunity to meet with our customers and gain a better understanding of their wants and needs. We were able to gain some valuable feedback and insights from our attending customers who are the market leaders in their field," said Darren Soo, Head of Sales Greater China, BU Additives, Clariant. In addition to specific products, Clariant also focused on communicating the company’s ability to serve the industry through its well-developed infrastructure across more than 15 cities in China, plus dozens more around the globe.
