Focusing on added value, Omya Specialty Materials is unique in providing a worldwide sales network for leading suppliers, resulting in one-stop shop technical solutions for customers.

Thoralf Gliese, Chief Commercial Officer said, “The new business unit integrates our minerals and chemicals into one unified distribution portfolio which will streamline our supply chain for customers. As a distribution partner for leading suppliers of chemicals and additives, Omya Specialty Materials has the advantages of broad technical expertise, long-term customer relationships, and worldwide logistics.”
