Bayer MaterialScience expands its distribution network for polycarbonates in Eastern Europe through the addition of ALBIS

Bayer MaterialScience (www.bayermaterialscience.com) is stepping up its activities in Eastern Europe by expanding its cooperation with the ALBIS Group (Hamburg, www.albis.com).
