VYNOVA

Vynova, a leading European PVC and chlor-alkali company, today announced that it will build a state-of-the-art production plant for liquid potassium carbonate (K₂CO₃) at its site in Tessenderlo, Belgium. The new and larger facility will replace the company's existing potassium carbonate plant in Tessenderlo and will be constructed to accompany Vynova’s growth, further strengthening its position as Europe’s number one supplier of potassium derivatives.

International Chemical Investors Group (ICIG) and Vynova Group are pleased to announce the appointment of Christophe André as new President of Vynova Group, with effect from 1 September 2021. Christophe André will succeed Stefan Sommer, who will retire as President of Vynova Group and assume the role of Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Vynova Holding.

Vynova has started commercialisation of ISCC PLUS-certified renewable caustic soda, which is manufactured using renewable energy sources. Vynova’s renewable caustic soda has a significantly lower carbon footprint than conventionally produced caustic soda and will help customers across a variety of industries to manufacture more sustainable products.

Vynova has launched the world’s first range of certified circular-attributed PVC resins. The innovative PVC portfolio is manufactured using circular ethylene which is produced from mixed plastic waste, helping close the loop on plastics recycling.

Vynova has opened a storefront on Knowde, the world's premier e-commerce site for chemicals, polymers and ingredients. The partnership with Knowde will further enhance Vynova's digital presence and boost the company's e-marketing strategy.
