Brenntag and CheMondis, a B2B online marketplace for chemicals in Europe, plan to jointly accelerate digital sales and marketing for the chemical industry.
The collaboration will start with making Brenntag’s leading portfolio for Paints & Coatings and Adhesives & Sealants gradually available for online purchase on CheMondis in the German market.
“Over the last two years, Brenntag has steadily built our Brenntag Connect eCommerce platform. The platform is now live in most of our mature markets. We see a strong upward trend in online business and with this complementary cooperation we extend our digital channels further,” said Maarten Stramrood, chief data officer at Brenntag. “Our collaboration with CheMondis will provide our current and potential customers an even broader choice.”
“It is a strong sign that online sales are becoming an increasingly important strategic component in the chemical industry,” added Sebastian Brenner, managing director of CheMondis. “Customers in our industry are demanding an online buying experience and CheMondis provides for that need.”
