Part of Reichhold Liquidation, Inc., Polynt UK Ltd. is a company that specializes in the production, development, and sale of chemical coatings and alkyds suitable for every industry and sector. Founded in 2003, the company is based in Cheddleton, UK. Polynt Group, the British parent company, offers financial information about the company, which is specialized in the distribution of composites, intermediates, and coatings. Polynt Group is also the world leader in the production, sales, and development of organic anhydrides and their derivatives.

Polynt SpA is one of the leading producers in Europe of specific polymer chemical intermediates, such as dibasic acids (fumaric and malic), anhydrides (maleic, phthalic, and trimellitic) and their derivatives (e.g., plasticizers), unsaturated polyester resins, compounds and composites. Such products belong to the broad category of chemical intermediates, i.e., these products are in the middle of the chain that begins with oil refining through production and up to sale and distribution on the market of finished goods. Polynt business model comprises the research and development, production and sale of specific polymer chemical intermediates, catalysts and compounds. Polynt products are utilized for the production of plastics, paints, inks and adhesives, electrical and electronic materials and components, paper and lubricants, and to a lesser extent they are utilized in the agrochemicals and food ingredients sectors. Polynt compounds are utilized in the transportation, construction and electrical industries. Polynt also produce catalysts and develop process technologies that it utilizes internally for its production facilities and licenses to third parties. Polynt distributes products primarily through its internal sales staff, which manages its business relationships with the firm's major customers. Polynt has sales agents as external sales staff and also uses professional distributors for the sale of malic acid and unsaturated polyster resins to certain of its lower-volume customers. Polynt's customers are predominately other producers of intermediate chemical derivatives or products that are sold further downstream to other producers or to end customers. Polynt separates activities into four business segments that correspond to its product line classifications. Phthalic Anhydride and General-Purpose Plasticizers: Phthalic anhydride primarily used in the production of plasticizers (which are used to produce cable coatings, covers and flexible plastic materials), alkyd resins for paints and unsaturated polyester resins, and other products. Maleic Anhydride, Derivatives and Catalysts: Derivatives of maleic anhydride include fumaric acid, malic acid, special anhydrides and special esters. This segment includes varied products, such as additives for lubricants, copolymers for detergents, unsaturated polyester resins and alkyd resins, additives in electrical and electronic materials and in high-performance compounds. These products are used in diverse sectors, including the food, agro-chemical, electrical and electronic industries. Trimellitic Anhydride and Special-Purpose Plasticizers: This product line includes trimellitic anhydride and high-performance plasticizers (trimellates, polymeric and linear plasticizers) primarily used for electronic equipment, electrical cable coating, transport, construction, packaging and medical equipment. Resins and Compounds: This product line includes unsaturated polyester resins and derivative compounds, primarily used in the construction, transport and electrical sectors. Special Esters: The family includes acetates, glycerine esters, ultraligh phtalates, citrates, fumarates, and other organic esters of medium molecular weight used in special applications like Flavours & Fragrancies, Cosmetics, glass frames and luxury goods, and as PVC plasticizers for sensitive applications like for food-contact and food packaging. Polynt is particularly committed to the research and development of new and innovative products and processes, which are carried out in its central laboratory at Scanzorosciate plant, as well as in laboratories that are specifically dedicated to each of its product lines. Polynt develops and produces products in six production facilities, five of which located in northern and central Italy, and one in Germany. Polynt is currently building a new production facility in Poland. Polynt believes that its integrated production units, with suitable storage and warehouse facilities, which allow it to produce, store, sell and deliver the chemical intermediates that the firm produces at various stages of the production cycle, or to utilize them further in its internal downstream production cycles to produce more specific derivatives and other higher value-added products.

Polynt SpA is engaged in the research and development, production, and sale of organic anhydrides and derivatives. It offers composites, intermediates, and coatings. The company was founded in 1955 and is headquartered in Scanzorosciate, Italy.
