Songwon strikes deal over organotin intermediates

South Korean company Songwon Industrial Co. Ltd. is cooperating with Nitto Kasei for the long term supply of organotin intermediates in Japan. Following a recent agreement between Nitto Kasei and Sankyo Organic Chemicals of Japan, which has decided to stop the activities of its chemicals division to produce organotin stabilizers and catalysts as of 1 April, all production will be transferred to Nitto Kasei.

Songwon, which was previously appointed as the supply partner to Sankyo Organic Chemicals, has signed a long term agreement with Nitto Kasei to support its demand for intermediates, mainly di-alkyl tin oxide, for the production of tin-based PVC stabilizers and catalysts.
