Company background
DJCHEM CHEMICALS POLAND S.A. was formed in 1985 as a partnership to commercialize the founders' novel technology. The foundation of the company is its catalytic technology for selective oxidation of amines.
Using this unique capability, DJCHEM commercialized DEHA (Diethylhydroxylamine) in 1991. The company expanded its technology portfolio in 1994 with the commercialization of DOX-1 (Mixed diaryl-p-phenylenediamines) and DOX-2 (Mixed diaryl-p-phenylenediamines).
Continued growth in these materials created a need for larger and more efficient production facilities. DJCHEM became a joint stock company in 1997, with
First Investment Fund as a capital investment partner. Construction of the manufacturing plant began at a greenfield site in Wolomin, Poland. The facility began commercial production in 1999, producing DEHA, DOX-1 and DOX-2. The plant currently employs 120 people.
DJCHEM at present
The novel process technologies employed at DJCHEM produce high quality materials at competitive economics. Combining this technology and a modern, efficient facility has allowed DJCHEM to compete effectively against our competitors. This is evident in our continued growth in sales for all products on an international scale.
In 2000, DJCHEM exported more than 60% of its production to Western Europe and the Americas.
DJCHEM's global competitiveness has improved steadily. The company has on-going training programs for employees and is continually working to improve efficiency and reduce cost to maintain that competitive edge.
We continue to sharpen our focus on technology development and manufacturing optimization. We are expanding our product lines using the core catalyst technology that has made DJCHEM an effective global competitor.
DJCHEM operates the most modern and efficient facility worldwide for DEHA and diaryl-p-phenylenediamines. We are confident that our technology provides the foundation for a successful future. We look forward to working with our customers to provide continual improvements in our products and processes to secure that future.
