en.Wedoany.com Reported - Recently, Celanese announced an optimization of its production network for the engineered materials business in Asia. As part of the company's "Growth and Strengthening" strategy, Celanese will close its compounding plant in Ulsan, South Korea, and transfer its capacity to three production bases in Nanjing and Shenzhen, China, and Silvassa, India, to enhance cost efficiency and supply chain reliability.

This network optimization results in the immediate cessation of all manufacturing and production activities at the Ulsan plant. The facility primarily produced engineering plastics such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyamide (PA), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), and high-temperature polyamide (HTN), which are widely used in the automotive, electrical and electronics, and consumer goods sectors. Celanese stated that it will fully support customers in fulfilling contractual obligations, ensuring a smooth transfer of production to other regional manufacturing bases.

The output from the Ulsan plant will be reallocated to Celanese's facilities in Nanjing and Shenzhen, China, and Silvassa, India. These three plants are equipped with advanced compounding capabilities and are strategically located near key customer groups. Through this move, Celanese aims to consolidate the operational structure of its engineered materials business, optimize cost and manufacturing layout, and fully leverage the world-class compounding assets in Shenzhen, Nanjing, and Silvassa. The company expects this adjustment to also strengthen the regional supply chain network, improving responsiveness to customer demand and supply stability.
