As a key producer and technology leader in polymers and silicone chemistry, WACKER began evolving into a global player during the 1950s. Its products were first introduced to mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan by distributors in the 1970s. WACKER soon gained a good reputation in several application areas thanks to its outstanding quality and cutting-edge technology. In 1992, it began to acquire direct access to Greater China. Until now, Wacker has built up a stronger direct presence in Greater China, ranging from production, sales and technical support, which includes two technical centers ( in Shanghai and Beijing), four production sites( in Shanghai, Nanjing, Wuxi and Zhangjiagang) and seven sales offices( in Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou, Shunde, Hong Kong, Taipei and Hisnchu).
