KRAHN Chemie Benelux, a leading distributor of specialty chemicals, has formed a strategic partnership with Dura Europe, a renowned manufacturer of metal carboxylates. Effective January 1, 2025, KRAHN Chemie Benelux will serve as the exclusive distributor of Dura Europe’s paint driers and anti-skinning agents across the Benelux region. These products cater to a wide range of applications, including paints and coatings, printing inks, unsaturated polyester resins (UPR), polyurethane, chemicals and petrochemicals, fuel additives, lubricants, and greases.


This partnership marks a significant step forward for both companies. It enables KRAHN Chemie Benelux to expand its portfolio of additives, offering enhanced solutions to customers across Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg. Simultaneously, it strengthens Dura Europe’s presence in these markets, ensuring greater availability of its high-quality products and improved service for its customers.

Serge Vermooten, Business Segment Manager of Coatings & Construction Chemicals at KRAHN Chemie Benelux shares his enthusiasm for the new cooperation: " The coatings industry will face increasing regulations in the coming years. As a result, sustainability is becoming a critical focus. At KRAHN, we are proactively seeking forward-thinking solutions to address these challenges. That is why we are thrilled to welcome Dura Europe on board. Their innovative driers and anti-skinning agents are not only designed to meet upcoming regulatory requirements but also provide an innovative edge to traditional driers for both solvent and waterborne systems.”

Dura Europe’s product range includes solvent-borne driers, waterborne driers, and anti-skinning agents. With its European headquarters and production facilities in Spain, the company operates globally, offering cobalt-free solutions and low-cobalt alternatives that maintain high catalytic performance. These advanced formulations ensure excellent drying times and superior crosslink density. Additionally, Dura Europe’s products complement KRAHN’s bio-based waterborne alkyd dispersions, supporting KRAHN’s commitment to sustainability and innovative production solutions.


“We are excited to join forces with KRAHN as our trusted distribution partner in Benelux,” says John Birkett, Director at Dura Europe. “Their market knowledge and commitment to excellence perfectly align with our mission to provide high-quality products and outstanding service to our customers.”


With its extensive distribution network and deep industry expertise, KRAHN offers both technical support and localized customer service. The company is well-positioned to represent Dura Europe’s innovative solutions in the Benelux region, ensuring customers benefit from improved accessibility, faster delivery times and dedicated local support.
