Dutch firm expects materials business in China to grow at twice GDP's rate
Online Edition
DUTCH chemicals company DSM NV expects its materials sciences business here to grow twice as fast as China's economy due to rising demand from automakers and solar firms.
"Our strategy for materials sciences is finding solutions for climate and energy," said Dimitri de Vreeze, a board member responsible for materials sciences at DSM. DSM also has a life sciences cluster that provides pharmaceutical and nutritional products.
In materials sciences, the company supplies plastics to help automakers reduce car weight and also coatings to help solar firms increase the efficiency of photovoltaic modules.
DSM Materials Sciences grew at around 8 percent in China annually on average over the past five years, or roughly in line with GDP growth, de Vreeze said in a recent interview in Shanghai.
The company's aim is to grow at twice the rate of the GDP over the coming years in materials sciences with new plants and application labs, he said, citing China's growing demand for sustainable products.
"For example, if the automotive growth is 10 percent, the sustainable materials in automotive should grow double that rate," he said. "The car today will not be the car of 10 years from now, absolutely not."
