11 Extrusion Asia Edition 2/2023 ➠ Conventus Polymers LLC Conventus Polymers Singapore Pte. Ltd. www.conventuspolymers.com Opening of Singapore Subsidiary Announced n Conventus Polymers, a leading distri- butor of high-performance engineering thermoplastics, has established a subsi- diary in Singapore, Conventus Polymers Singapore Pte. Ltd., which will offer the company’s broad portfolio of products to processors and end users throughout Southeast Asia. The expansion into Sin- gapore is part of the company’s overall business strategy to grow into key geo- graphic regions. Establishing a legal entity strengthens its position in the Southeast Asian market and allows the company to offer world- class local service and support.to both local customers (plastic converters) and U.S.-based OEMs that it currently sup- ports. Singapore is the main business hub for Southeast Asia, which includes Ma- laysia, Vietnam, Thailand, Philippines, and Indonesia. “Our business is growing quickly and with our extensive product portfolio of specialty engineering plastics, we are firmly positioned as a strategic supplier,” said John Jorgensen, president of Con- ventus Polymers. “This important move into Singapore signals our further com- mitment to local players along with key multinational OEMs.” Conventus chose Singapore based on se- veral factors including geographic loca- tion, ease of doing business, and tax laws. Jorgensen said many U.S.-based OEMs are re-assessing risks associated with supply chains, resulting in an in- crease in molding done in Vietnam, Ma- laysia, and Thailand. While the region was showing strong organic growth, it has been one of the main beneficiaries of the geopolitical tension between the U.S. and China. Considerable molding previously done in China has moved to Southeast Asia among other places like reshoring to the United States or near-shoring to Mexico or Costa Rica, said Jorgensen. The Singapore initiative will expand Con- ventus’ reach into existing strategic mar- kets such as electrical/electronics, building and construction, water management, consumer goods, energy, and healthcare, according to Jorgensen. With a legal ope- rating entity in Singapore, Conventus can offer its international customers import and export capabilities, local inventory and warehousing, local currency transac- tions, and Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) In- coterms. Conventus will handle all exporting, importing, insurance, customs clearance, duty costs, and freight from port to warehouse to the customer. To service the Singapore market, Con- ventus will establish a warehouse location which will support its Southeast Asian customers. The Singapore operation is currently being managed by China Gene- ral Manager Harley Shi. Conventus is selling the same global port- folio of products in Singapore including specialty nylons, polysulfones, thermo- plastic vulcanizates (TPVs), and custom compounds. ➠ Molecor www.molecorsea.com 定位的应用程序，也在展会上进行了演 示。该软件独家开发的分子允许用户快 速获取所有Molecor的每个部件的技术 信息，并输入任何其他部件的数据，无 论制造商和产品材料，有效地管理网 络。它还允许用户添加评论、照片、管 理事件等等。 Pipe Specialist at Thai Water Expo n Thai Water Expo 2023 took place from the 30th of August to the 1st of Septem- ber at the Queen Sirikit National Conven- tion Center (QSNCC) in Bangkok and Molecor (SEA) Sdn Bhdwill presented the widest range of PVC-O solutions for the creation of water piping networks.
