Vinyl Chloride Monomer

Vinyl chloride monomer (VCM), the raw material for PVC resin, is produced using chlorine obtained from electrolysis of salt, and ethylene, a petrochemical product. Integrated production from electrolysis (chlorine) to VCM and the manufacture of PVC is also one of our strengths.
