Grafenberg, Germany – Sales at Rampf Group, which makes polyurethane resins for a range of applications, rose by 10.5% to EUR 169m in 2017, the firm said.
The privately-held company said that it experienced growth in ‘almost all’ its markets, which include reactive casting resins, machine systems, and composites.
The company’s subsidiary in China, Rampf Taiching, benefitted greatly from the increasing quality requirements on the Chinese market, it said. The company added that this helped to grow the two-component plastics systems business there, which includes polyurethanes.
In North America, there was growth in products for casting resins, mixing and dispensing, and materials for modelling and mould engineering.
Rampf, which employs 830 people, is investing EUR 20m in new buildings, machinery and plant. Michael Rampf, CEO, said this is a ‘record sum for our group’.
