Evonik responds to laurolactam boom with additional capacity

Because of the persistently high demand for polyamide 12 worldwide, Germany-based Evonik Industries will continue to expand its laurolactam capacity further.

The move sees Evonik consolidating its globally leading position on the polyamide 12 market and acting as a reliable partner for secure supplies to its customers, now and in the future, announced the company.
