Advanced Biochemical (Thailand) Co. Ltd (ABT), a wholly-owned subsidiary of AGC Vinythai Public Co. Ltd (AVT) has announced the launch of its new product brand, "EPINITY" with a new website. EPINITY is the new brand name for ABT’s epichlorohydrin (ECH), a bio-based, drop-in, and competitive ECH for use in a wide range of downstream industries.

According to a statement, launching EPINITY is a key milestone for ABT to represent the company’s long experience in the reliable supply of high-quality bio-based ECH and to emphasize its position as a pioneer in supporting its customers and downstream users to achieve their challenging carbon reduction targets to meet Net Zero carbon emission goals.

EPINITY is mainly used as a precursor to epoxy resins, with uses in protective coatings, electronic components, adhesives, and advanced composite materials.

Other applications include paper and water treatment chemicals, mild surfactants in personal care, and fine chemical applications.

Building on ten years of ECH production, the new EPINITY brand confirms ABT’s position as a leading producer of bio-based ECH and takes us forward into the next decade, a decade that is critical to the future of our planet. EPINITY is a best-in-class bio-based ECH and I am proud of the ABT team which has worked tirelessly to launch this new brand and website, said Masaki Takahashi, Managing Director of ABT.
