Brenntag has signed a distribution agreement with Nouryon for coatings and ink products in Brazil.

• Brenntag will distribute a range of Bermocoll® cellulose ether products for the coatings and inks industry, formulated to deliver optimised consistency and viscosity.

Brenntag, the global market leader in chemicals and ingredients distribution, has announced a new agreement with Nouryon for the distribution of Bermocoll® cellulose ethers in the coatings and inks markets in Brazil.

Building on successful collaborations in North America, Brenntag Specialities has expanded its partnership with Nouryon to serve as the distributor for coatings and inks products in Brazil. Bermocoll® is a group of non-ionic, water-soluble cellulose ethers that are commonly used in many industries to improve performance, thicken, and stabilise products, especially in dry-mix mortars and paints.

The product range is used in paints and coatings to ensure reliable flow and viscosity control, and in construction and building materials, where it improves overall performance through optimised formulation properties.

“I consider Brenntag a strategic partner for the distribution of Bermocoll® in the Paints and Inks segment in Brazil. As a global distributor of chemical products, with solid experience in marketing Nouryon solutions in various countries and markets, Brenntag offers broad market coverage, qualified technical support, and logistical excellence, which contributes to adding even more value to the paints and coatings supply chain,” said Christian Hainfellner, Account Manager at Nouryon.

Marcelo Barros, Sr. Director Material Science for Brenntag Specialties Latin America, commented: “We are very enthusiastic about this new partnership, which will expand our presence in the paint and coatings market through a strengthened portfolio of high-performance cellulose ethers. This collaboration reinforces our commitment to delivering consistent value, high quality materials, and differentiated technical services. Together, we are well positioned to support our customers with enhanced solutions, reliable supply, and expertise that drives performance across the coatings value chain.”
