Kurita Water Industries to Establish a Water Treatment Chemicals Subsidiary
Kurita Water Industries today announced that it will establish Kurita Chemical Manufacturing Ltd., a new subsidiary that will produce water treatment chemicals, on April 1, 2009.
Currently, Kurita Water Industries’ two production facilities, the Egawa Factory (Sashima, Ibaraki) and Ako Factory (Ako, Hyogo), are responsible for the Kurita Group’s domestic production of water treatment chemicals. Centralizing the Group’s technology and expertise in the production of water treatment chemicals at the new company, which will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Kurita Water Industries, will enable Kurita to further improve quality and production efficiency, and thereby produce water treatment chemicals that provide even greater value to customers.
