A leading position in the global market

For more than two decades, we have dedicated ourselves to the manufacture of superabsorbent polymers – and with great success. The fact that today’s diapers have become much smaller and thinner – from more than 100 grams in the 1980s to only 45 grams today – is one of the achievements that have resulted from the progress we have made in the development of superabsorbents.

So effective, it’s like magic

Just a few grams of superabsorbents are sufficient to store a baby’s urine, making it “disappear.” They can absorb up to 300 times their own weight in liquid, forming a gel that traps the liquid and won’t release it, even under pressure. Our products are also used in feminine hygiene and adult incontinence products. In Europe, we manufacture superabsorbents primarily at our factory in Krefeld. Other production facilities include Rheinmünster (for superabsorbents) and Marl (acrylic acid). We also have production plants in the USA, in Greensboro, NC and Garyville, LA (superabsorbents) and Deer Park, TX (acrylic acid). In addition, we maintain laboratories for research, development and application technology in Krefeld (Germany), Greensboro (USA) and Shanghai (China).
