Prime Polymer Co., Ltd, a joint venture company of Mitsui Chemicals & Idemitsu Kosan, announced its decision to suspend operations of one polypropylene production line at its Anesaki works, Ichihara City, Chiba Prefecture, Japan in March 2023.
This decision is as part of the announcement in May 2021, to construct a new polypropylene manufacturing facility planning for a scrap-and-build-style restructuring of its production system.
The current polypropylene production capacity of the company is 1,170K tons per year which will come down to 1,060K tons per year after closure of Anesaki line.
Looking ahead, Prime Polymer will work diligently to address the needs of its customers by streamlining its operations in a bid to bolster its business platform and adding further value to its products.
