Hempel announced the acquisition of its South African toll manufacturer The Coatings Manufacturing Company (TCMC). Since 2011, Hempel South Africa has partnered with TCMC, which is located close to Johannesburg, to better serve customers in the region; the partnership covered the Hempatex and Hempalin range of products.
The plant in South Africa is one of four new factories that Hempel has added to its worldwide production footprint since 2014, as part of its One Hempel – One Ambition growth strategy. Hempel inaugurated its first 100% waterborne coatings factory in the Middle East (Saudi Arabia) in February 2014 and a new factory in India in September 2014.
