Arkema announces expansion of fluoropolymer (Kynar® PVDF) production capacities in Calvert City in the USA
Through this investment, Arkema, which operates fluoropolymer production facilities on the three major continents - Europe, North America and Asia -, further consolidates its world-leading position in PVDF marketed under the Kynar® brand.

Having successfully completed a similar expansion at its Changshu, China plant earlier this year, Arkema now invests in the United States. This new capacity will enable the Group to support its customers’ growth in America, particularly in emerging applications such as water filtration and in traditional markets such as the chemical process industry and high performance cables (automobile, fiber optics, oil industry).
