Borealis, a leading provider of chemical and innovative plastics solutions, and Nexeo Solutions, a global leader in plastics distribution, announced today that they have signed a distribution agreement to offer Bormed™ products, dedicated to healthcare applications in North America. Nexeo and Borealis’ partnership began through Nexeo’s acquisition of Ashland. Ashland had been distributing Borealis produced polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE) in Europe over the last 15 years.
The distribution agreement has been expanded to include new products such as Borealis’ Borstar® PP and PE solutions. Currently, Nexeo Solutions distributes 500+ Borealis products to over 3,000 customers throughout Europe. These solutions mainly serve the advanced packaging market but also include the automotive, healthcare and infrastructure sectors. The partnership’s continued success has been the result of notable improvements including the centralisation and automation of transactional processes and the improved alignment of marketing activities.
Building on this experience, the two companies are looking forward to providing premium products and service to customers in the USA. “Nexeo Solutions is ready to expand the relationship from Europe to USA and offer the Bormed™ materials as part of our dedicated, high-quality healthcare portfolio,” said Jim Harris, Nexeo Solutions Vice President of Product Management. “Nexeo Solutions has a strong strategic commitment to the global healthcare market.
