In the 1980s, the company entered the chlor-alkali (CA) field ahead of all other Korean chemical producers and then diversified into organic and inorganic chemical products. HCCs state-of the-art research facilities and continued technological innovation have dramatically improved our technological capabilities and quality competitiveness to make us a leader in the PVC, LLDPE, LDPE, and CA markets not only in Korea, but in Asia as well. We work to continually improve our corporate system through restructuring and business reengineering activities designed to save energy and costs, and to improve productivity and quality. Now, HCC is positioned as a world-class company, focused on developing next-generation businesses, including solar, biopharmaceuticals, secondary battery materials, nano materials, while further strengthening our core businesses of PVC, PE, and CA.
