Wacker sets up base in the Philippines

Munich-based chemical company Wacker says it is strengthening its presence in Southeast Asia by opening a Philippine representative office in Manila. The office will distribute products of the chemical business divisions Wacker Silicones, Wacker Polymers and Wacker Biosolutions, catering for customers in the construction, adhesives, automotive, electronics, textile, leather, personal care and food industry. The office in Makati City is Wacker’s fifth in Southeast Asia.

For more than 30 years, Wacker has been providing construction chemicals across Southeast Asia, including dispersible polymer powders for skim coats, tile adhesives, self-leveling flooring compounds, and water-proofing membranes as well as silicone sealants and adhesives. The Manila office will better serve the Philippine customers, supporting the company’s growth in the region.

It will market other Wacker products, including silanes, silicone emulsions, silicone resins, and sealants for the automotive, electronics, textile, leather, and personal care industry, as well as cystein and cyclodextrin products for food manufacturers.

It now has 25 sales offices in Asia, five of them located in Southeast Asia: Bangkok (Thailand), Ho Chi Minh City (Vietnam), Jakarta (Indonesia), Manila (the Philippines), and Singapore, which also is the company’s regional headquarters.
