The celebration of the
completion of the plant’s
expansion was held on
7th May, with Beh Swan
Gin, chairman of the
Evonik Industries的执委会成
员Wohlhauser说。
他解释到,Evonik Indus-
tries在2012-2016年间决定进
行总额为55亿欧元(61.9亿美
元)的资本投资,其中33亿欧元
(37.1亿美元)已经完成,“约有
三分之一是投在这个地区。”
公司拒绝披露在Evonik Oil
Additives工厂扩产和新产能
中的总投入,但是Evonik Oil
Additives负责人Ralf Dussel
说,“这是我们在全球五家工厂
中最大的一个。我们在这里的产
量是公司全球产量的40%,我们
的人员也增加了20%。”
工厂生产约50种润滑油添加
剂产品,都是为向汽车和工业用
户供货的客户定制的。
“我们的针对我们客户的价值
定位是——提高其效率,我们
希望为他们提供竞争优势,”他
说。“我们业务的驱动力就是燃
料效率。”

Dussel说,公司一直向其客户
足量、不间断地供货,并创造了
超过275000小时的安全生产
记录。
在由公司高管出席的新闻发布
会上,公司披露,没有进一步扩
大新加坡工厂产能的计划(工厂
还在两公顷的空地)或在亚洲其
他地方建厂的计划。
“我们[原先]决定在新加坡
扩产是出于多个因素的考虑。
知识产权保护是其中之一,但
并不是决定性因素,”母公司
Evonik Industries东南亚、澳

Meinshausen说。
“贴近市场是关键,” Mein-
shausen说。“Evonik可以确保
我们满足亚洲客户的需求,服务
于亚洲。”

中最大的,也代表了德国Evonik
Industries公司的润滑油添加剂
业务对该地区的重视。

滑油市场,因此,2008年的决定

commitment to Asia
and to Singapore as a
production hub,” said
Wohlhauser, a member
of the executive board of
parent Evonik Industries.

6.19 billion) in capital
investment from 2012-
2016, of which EUR 3.3

has already been spent,
and “almost one-third

The company declined
to disclose the total
investment in the
Evonik Oil Additives
