BASF Canada and Quantiam reorganize their Catalytic Coatings business serving the petrochemical industry
MISSISSAUGA, ONTARIO and EDMONTON, ALBERTA, August 6, 2018 – BASF Canada and Quantiam are reorganizing their joint CAMOLTM Catalytic Coatings business, serving customers in the global petrochemical industry.
Effective as of July 31, 2018, Quantiam will now provide marketing, sales and technical services for all CAMOL (Catalytically-assisted Manufacture of Olefins) products, in addition to its current manufacturing and R&D support.
The CAMOL product line offers advanced catalytic coatings that are applied on the internal surfaces of steam cracker furnace coils used in the petrochemical industry. These heat-resistant CAMOL coatings improve operational profitability of steam crackers: they reduce carbon formation and increase on-line production time, resulting in a reduction of energy requirements and CO2 emissions.
