Synthopol

SYNTHOPOL specialises in developing and manufacturing synthetic resins for the paint, varnish, plastics and adhesives industries. In 1984, SYNTHOPOL CHEMIE passed to the second generation of the Koch family and was managed by Dr Günter Koch until 2012; since then, Dr Henning Ziemer, Hubert Starzonek and Dr Günter Koch have formed the executive board, of which Dr Ziemer is the speaker. To this day, SYNTHOPOL is run as a family business, independently and collaboratively, allowing us to both plan for the long term and respond flexibly, act globally and remain rooted in our local region. SYNTHOPOL is one of the leading European producers of synthetic resins for the paint, lacquer, plastics and adhesives industries. Founded in 1957, SYNTHOPOL is today a globally active family business with headquarters in Buxtehude near Hamburg. In addition to the standard binding agents, our range includes a wide variety of innovative and tailor-made products. With a turnover of more than 130 million euros, SYNTHOPOL is one of Europe’s leading producers of synthetic resins. To ensure that we remain at the forefront of our industry, SYNTHOPOL invests heavily every year in production technology, research and development, EDP and sustainable environmental protection measures.
