Russian fluoropolymer producer sets up operations in the U.S.

HaloPolymer Holding, a Russian manufacturer of fluorated products, has founded its representative office in the U.S. HaloPolymer Trading, Inc. is headquartered in Houston, Texas, while its warehouses are in Houston and New York, N.Y. HaloPolymer Trading, Inc. is the first foreign representative office of HaloPolymer, ОАО.

The company said the main task of the representative office is to provide a qualitative sales increase of its PTFE grades (PN, PN20, PN40, PN90, A, DE, TM, PNM1/2 and TG), as well as development of prospective fuse fluoropolymers sales (FEP, ETFE, PVDF etc.) to customers in North and South America.

The opening of the U.S. office allows HaloPolymer, ОАО to provide better service to its customers such as fixed prices as of the transaction settlement without the necessity to perform customs formalities, which also allows for significant lead time reduction.

“Our representative office in Houston, Texas will significantly extend our possibilities for dealing with partners,” said Maxim Doroshkevich, HaloPolymer CEO. “It will decrease the time period between purchase and cargo delivery to our partners; this fact will allow the company to sell products with updated market prices without considering possible price changes during two-month delivery.”
