Evonik is working with two new partners to distribute the group's high-performance polymers. TER Chemicals has taken over the distribution of VESTOSINT polyamide 12 powders across Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and Biesterfeld Performance Rubber GmbH handles the distribution of VESTENAMER rubber additive in the EMEA region (except Italy).

"We are very pleased to have TER Chemicals and Biesterfeld Performance Rubber as reliable partners who have intact and flexible supply chains, and a strong customer focus for our high-performance materials. The new partnerships are intended to increase the product availability in relevant industrial markets such as metal coating, lacquer and paint formulations as well as rubber recycling," says Dr. Peter Hannen, Head of the Powders and Specialties Market Segment at Evonik. 

According to the signed distribution agreements between Evonik and TER Chemicals and Biesterfeld Performance Rubber, at the respective effective dates, Evonik’s customers will receive their VESTOSINT and VESTENAMER high-performance materials with exactly the same quality and specifications as before. Additionally, the agreements also let Evonik customers enjoy service offers from the new distribution partners.

TER Chemicals Distribution Group is a global distributor of specialty chemicals with 21 locations and annual sales of EUR 350 million. The product portfolio ranges from additives for various applications, binders, dispersions and plastics to resins, fillers, and pigments.
