EMS-CHEMIE HOLDING AG Company Profile
EMS-CHEMIE HOLDING can appreciate a good performance, especially when its polymers take center stage. The company's performance polymers, which include polyamides and fusible adhesives, account for about 90% of its sales. Its polymers are used in products such as cable sheathing, fuel lines, eyeglass frames, packaging films, appliances, and automobiles. EMS CHEMIE's fine chemicals unit makes additives for surface treatment products used in powder coatings, epoxy compounds, and additives used in tires. EMS also manufactures igniters used in airbags. The family of former chairman and CEO Christoph Blocher controls a majority of the company.
