Plastics supply: DSM, Ashland part ways in North America

Effective Feb. 1, 2009, DSM Engineering Plastics and Ashland Distribution will dissolve their distribution agreement in North America, as DSM has turned to the Channel Prime Alliance as its new distributor there. The business relationship between the companies in Europe and the Asia/Pacific region remains unaffected by this announcement. DSM Engineering Plastics’s offerings include polyamide, PBT and PET polyesters, polycarbonate, extrudable adhesive resins and others materials.
