阿夫顿化学公司, a global leader in the lubricant and fuel additive market, has received approval from the Afton Chemical board to invest in Gasoline Performance Additives (GPA) blending capabilities at its Singapore Chemical Additive Manufacturing Facility.
The investment is part of Afton’s “Made In” strategy that focuses on globally lean supply chain solutions that enable quicker support and more effective supply to its customers in Asia. It will also provide the additional infrastructure required to support the company’s long-term global growth plans.
预计亚太地区对GPA的需求预计将以4％的复合年增长率在2024年增长。“新加坡的额外GPA混合能力将有助于满足中国和亚洲其他地区预期增长所推动的需求的增长。”said Mr. Sean Spencer, Vice President and Managing Director of Afton Chemical Asia.
阿夫顿已向新加坡化学添加剂制造工厂投资了约4亿新元。继续第三阶段投资的决定是由于新加坡的石化枢纽综合以及与亚洲和中东各地的贸易连通性。新加坡政府和经济发展委员会从其在该地区的“投资”开始就为阿夫顿提供了大力支持。
The new unit will help Afton and, in turn, our customers, by:
- 为该地区开发具有成本效益和定制的解决方案，这将使我们的客户在其市场上具有竞争优势
- Strengthening our ability to serve our customers worldwide and support their future growth
- Connecting our capacities globally to support regional and global business continuity, providing security of supply and shorter lead-times
新的混合单元将在2021年第四季度之前运行，旨在遵守质量，环境和职业健康和安全评估以及所有适用的法规。这项投资补充了美洲和欧洲的混合和终端运营。
Afton is a global market leader in performance additive technology for fuels. Afton’s GPA solutions help fuels burn cleaner and more efficiently, enabling engines to perform as designed during their equipment lifetime on fuel economy, power and acceleration.
