Bostik, the specialty adhesives business line of Arkema, has expanded its cementitious products manufacturing capacities, based on its polymer modified binder (PMB) technology, at its Seremban plant in Malaysia. As an adhesive specialist for construction, consumer and industrial markets, Bostik will be able to serve growing construction market demand in Central Malaysia, North Malaysia and Sabah regions.
 
With the significant expansion of its production capacities in Seremban, Bostik has increased its manufacturing presence in Malaysia, enabling it to better serve construction customers in Central Malaysia, including Kuala Lumpur, North Malaysia and Sabah.
 
This extended site manufactures cementitious construction products including ceramic tile adhesives, tile grouts, floor levelling compounds and wall finishing products.
   
These productions are based on Bostik’s polymer modified binder (PMB) technology which remains a focus of its ongoing innovation, research and development activities.
 
This expansion, just two years after Bostik opened its second Malaysian manufacturing plant in Johor Bahru to serve Southern Malaysia and Singapore markets, is an important step in Bostik’s development plans in Malaysia.
