Share to

Princeton, New Jersey February 7, 2017– Solvay and Nexeo Solutions announce that effective March 1 Nexeo will be channel to market for the Rhodoline® Defoamer product line in the United States, Canada and Mexico. This decision comes as a result of consolidation and rationalization efforts that will help Solvay focus on the continued development of solutions for the coatings and emulsion polymerization markets. Solvay continues to supply with the same manufacturing location, process and sales specifications.

  

“The Rhodoline® Defoamer product line is highly complementary to our product offering as well as our customer base.  We are looking forward to both servicing and growing this very important product line” said Joey Gullion, Vice President, Nexeo Solutions Specialty Chemicals.
