Baxenden Chemicals, innovators in polyurethane technology, have recently appointed QCI Britannic as agents for Latin America.
"The appointment of QCI is part of our ongoing geographical expansion," explains John Simpson, General Manager of the Speciality Chemicals Division. "QCI was a logical choice as it has an in-depth knowledge of the South American market, is well respected in the industry and is able to sell technically into the market."
Enrique Freund, Vice President and General Manager of QCI Britannic, based in Miami, Florida, is also looking forward to the challenges ahead:
''We are extremely pleased to be working with Baxenden. It is our objective to develop a long term, mutually beneficial working relationship with the company. This is part of QCI's strategy of positioning the company as a highly focused, technical service organization by selling value added, specialty products.
"The technical, commercial and sales support function provided by Baxenden has been excellent and we look forward to working even more closely in the future. We can now help customers develop products that differentiate them in the marketplace and enable them to drive the market in the direction of higher end, higher performance, industrial coatings.''
In September 2003 Baxenden will support QCI at the ABRAFATI Exhibition in Brazil, Latin America's premier coating show.
