is extending its partnership with ALBIS Distribution GmbH & Co. KG, one of the leading distributors of thermoplastics, to cover additional regions. Strengthen Brands' Presence in Northern Europe
Starting October 1, 2024, ALBIS will have distribution rights for PLEXIGLAS® and PLEXIMID® molding compounds in Scandinavian regions (Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Sweden) and the Baltic states (Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania). This expansion builds on the existing cooperation between the two companies in Turkey and North Africa.
"By deciding to grant ALBIS the distribution rights in Scandinavia and the Baltics, we are emphasizing continuity and trust in a partnership that has already proven successful in Turkey and North Africa,' says René Kogler, head of Business Management & Distribution with the Molding Compounds business unit at Röhm.
'We look forward to continued collaboration and see significant potential to strengthen our brands' presence in these regions and leverage the growth opportunities we see in Northern and Northeastern Europe."
Reliable Materials for Demanding Applications
PLEXIGLAS®, Röhm's polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) brand, has been a market leader for over 90 years. Known for its durability, UV resistance, and the highest surface hardness among thermoplastics, PLEXIGLAS® is a go-to material for sustainable and contemporary designs. All this contributes to the longevity of the components made from it. Made from renewable raw materials, PLEXIGLAS® proTerra molding compounds reduce the carbon footprint while offering proven performance. PLEXIMID® (PMMI) has a very high heat deflection temperature combined with high transmission and is used in demanding applications in the electrical and electronics industry, among others.
"We are very pleased to receive these new distribution rights and to further expand our collaboration with Röhm. This is a clear vote of confidence in ALBIS' expertise, high level of service, and market knowledge," says Julian Wegner, business manager Technical Polymers at ALBIS. "With our strong network, we are well-positioned to drive the growth of PLEXIGLAS® and PLEXIMID® in Scandinavia and the Baltics, and to further establish these brands in these regions."
