Coatex Enters Into Agreement with Arkema for POLYPHOBE Products

Coatex has announced an agreement with Arkema to supply POLYPHOBETM products to the paint and coatings industry in the United States, Canada, Mexico, and Puerto Rico.

This agreement is a result of the acquisition by Arkema of UCAR Emulsion Systems from Dow.

"Our first priority is to make this transition as smooth and transparent as possible for customers," says Eric Kaiser, marketing director for Arkema Emulsion Systems, formerly UES. "The POLYPHOBE line is an excellent example of how we can work with Coatex to find solutions for our customers."
