Finn Chemicals

Finn Chemicals Company Introduction in Malaysia:

Finn Chemicals was a specialized business unit primarily engaged in the development and production of process chemicals. Its focus was on providing solutions, particularly for the mining and metals industries, offering various reagents used in mineral processing, hydrometallurgy, and other industrial applications. Historically, Finn Chemicals was part of Outotec (which is now Metso Outotec) before its chemical business segment was acquired by Kemira, a global chemicals company. While both Kemira and Metso Outotec have a business presence and conduct operations in Malaysia related to their respective chemical and process technology offerings, there is no distinct independent entity operating specifically as "Finn Chemicals Malaysia" as a standalone company.

Factory or Trading Company:

In its original operational capacity, Finn Chemicals functioned as a manufacturer and developer of specialized chemicals. This categorizes it primarily as a factory or producer, as its activities involved research, development, and the production of chemical compounds for industrial use. Its role was not solely that of a trading company. The legacy, products, and expertise associated with Finn Chemicals are now integrated into the global operations of Kemira and Metso Outotec, which continue to serve various industries, including those in Malaysia, as part of their extensive portfolios.

Finn Chemicals, which was acquired by Kemira in 2005, operates in Malaysia primarily under the Kemira brand. The products manufactured or sold by Kemira (formerly Finn Chemicals) in Malaysia typically fall into the following categories:
