Perstorp opens new plant in India

Feed additive producer, Perstorp, has opened a feed additive production plant in Vapi, India, as part of the company's plan to increase its presence on the Asian feed additives market.

Marc Kinjet has been appointed as Business Development Manager Asia to oversee continued growth.

Perstorp has long been looking for the right opportunity to strengthen its position in the growing Asian market where they see a fast growing demand for its feed additives. As a result of the strategic direction it decided at the beginning of 2010 to use the existing infrastructure and invest at Perstorp's production site in Vapi, India.

The facility has now been optimised to produce high quality feed additives. The main focus of the plant is the production of preservatives, which includes mould inhibitors, anti-oxidants, and acidifiers.
