In India, specialty chemical company Perstorp has brought a new, biobased pentaerythritol and penta chemicals production plant online at Sayakha.
The site has the capacity to annually produce 40,000 metric tons of pentaerythritol and 26,000 metric tons of calcium formate.
The plant is the largest Asian investment in Perstorp’s history, Gorm Jensen, Perstorp’s Executive Vice President Commercial & Innovation, said in a press statement. “This plant will increase the availability and reliability of products for current, as well as new customers, reducing lead times with about 50% for Asian customers.”
The facility will produce a penta product mix including Perstorp’s renewable based, ISCC PLUS-certified grade, Voxtar™, and Penta Mono and Calcium Formate. The plant will use renewably sourced raw materials as well as a hybrid source of electricity.
