Given the pace of technological change in downstream industries that rely on advanced materials and chemicals to enable their advances, it is critical that these companies continue to innovate.
Culver understands the market dynamics have been increasingly demanding of innovation in the Materials and Chemicals industry. Notably, growing concern about the global environment has led to eco-friendly restrictions, with the aim of reducing pollutants and greenhouse gases. This, in turn, is resulting in unique chemical applications, such as water-based plastics and paints, biodegradable electronic components, and low-impact food-and-beverage packaging. Furthermore, developing energy fields like rechargeable batteries, wind and solar power, hold promise for expanded markets.
Culver looks to partner with companies in the Materials & Chemicals industry with a particular interest in:
- Electronics needing agents to produce printed circuit boards and other components;
- Agriculture requiring fertilizers and crop protection applications
- Housing, which relies on chemicals for construction materials, sealants, coatings, paints and plastics
- Consumer goods, such as perfumes, detergents, paper items and pharmaceutical
