Investment and Relocation
Brenntag Schweizerhall AG, the Swiss subsidiary of the global leader in chemical distribution, is set to invest in a new sulfuric acid dilution plant. The company will relocate to Infrapark Baselland, an industrial park in Muttenz, Switzerland. This move includes the installation of a pipeline to Bayer CropScience, which also has a location at Infrapark.
Operational Synergies
The new plant and pipeline will enable Brenntag to supply diluted sulfuric acid to Bayer CropScience on a just-in-time basis. This collaboration is expected to create operational synergies for all involved parties. Brenntag will focus on pooling outputs, while Bayer can concentrate on its core expertise. Infrapark Baselland benefits by gaining a new tenant and enhancing its networking capabilities.
Consolidation and Expansion
With the new plant and additional tanks, Brenntag Schweizerhall will consolidate its sulfuric acid activities at a single site. The company also plans to relocate other products from its standard range to the space it rents at Infrapark. Further installations of pipelines and tanks are planned to support this expansion.
