America
Pittsburgh, PA –February 27, 2024– LANXESS Corporation’s Material Protection Products (MPP) business unit has expanded its distribution partnership with Palmer Holland for industrial preservatives in North America. The agreement, which went into effect in January, enlarges Palmer Holland’s current portfolio into the metalworking fluids and lubricants markets following LANXESS’ acquisition of IFF’s microbial control business in July, 2022.
With the new agreement, Palmer Holland will cover the entire U.S. and Canada, focusing solely on the metalworking fluids and lubricants markets for the LANXESS Material Protection Products business. Palmer Holland will add the new brands KATHON™, ROCIMA™, BIOBAN™ and KORDEK™ to its portfolio, along with the flagship Preventol® brand, to represent LANXESS’ full offering of industrial preservatives for metalworking fluids and lubricants.
“We are pleased to expand the partnership between LANXESS MPP and Palmer Holland to include our complete offering of preservatives for metalworking fluids and lubricants,” said Bill Rohrer, U.S. Head of Sales for LANXESS’ Material Protection Products (MPP) Industrial business line. “Our customers in North America will benefit from Palmer Holland’s deep experience in the lubricants market, and will have access to our full portfolio in one place.”
LANXESS offers a broad range of highly effective biocidal active ingredients and blends suitable for either tankside or concentrate application to help protect metalworking fluids from microbial attack, biofilms formation, mycobacterial growth and other issues.
