Evonik’s Goldschmidt Industrial Specialties in Germany has expanded its agreement with Nalco Company, based in Illinois. The agreement allows Nalco to be the exclusive distributor of Evonik’s tissue-paper and softener additives business in Central and South America.

Manufacturing must efficiently combine the fibre, water, energy and the appropriate chemical softeners to achieve the desired softness levels for the particular product.

In July 2006, Nalco was appointed exclusive distributor for Evonik’s tissue product range in Europe. An agency agreement between the companies covering the United States, Canada and Mexico was finalized in February 2007.

Stuart Passantino, Nalco’s Global Strategic Business Leader for Tissue and Towel Grades, says the South and Central America agreement builds on the two companies’ “proven partnership of success” in North America and Europe and will continue to focus on delivering “innovative and sustainable solutions in all geographies of the world.”
