OCI COMPANY LTD. 기업 소개 (한국어)
OCI COMPANY LTD.는 대한민국의 대표적인 화학 기업 중 하나입니다. 본래 동양화학공업(Oriental Chemical Industries)으로 시작하여 오랜 역사와 기술력을 바탕으로 성장해왔습니다.
주요 사업 분야는 소다회, 과산화수소 등 기초화학 제품과 카본블랙, 핏치, 벤젠, 톨루엔, 자일렌(BTX) 등 정밀화학 및 석탄화학 분야를 포함합니다. 최근 기업 구조 개편을 통해 일부 사업(예: 태양광용 폴리실리콘 등 에너지 솔루션 및 도시개발 사업)은 지주회사인 OCI홀딩스 산하로 분할되었으며, OCI COMPANY LTD.는 핵심 화학 사업에 더욱 집중하고 있습니다.
OCI COMPANY LTD.는 국내외에 생산 공장(팩토리)을 직접 운영하며 화학 제품을 제조하는 제조업체입니다. 자체 생산한 제품을 국내 및 전 세계 시장에 판매하므로 무역 활동도 활발히 수행하지만, 그 근간은 제조에 있습니다.
결론: OCI COMPANY LTD.는 자체 생산 시설을 갖춘 제조업체(Manufacturer)이며, 단순 중개 무역상이 아닙니다. (It is a Manufacturer with its own production facilities, not just a trading company).

OCI COMPANY LTD. Company Introduction
OCI COMPANY LTD. is one of South Korea's leading chemical companies. Originally established as Oriental Chemical Industries, it has grown based on its long history and technological expertise.
Its main business areas include basic chemicals such as soda ash and hydrogen peroxide, as well as fine chemicals and coal chemicals like carbon black, pitch, and benzene, toluene, xylene (BTX). Following a recent corporate restructuring, some businesses (e.g., energy solutions like polysilicon for solar power, and urban development projects) were spun off under the holding company OCI Holdings. OCI COMPANY LTD. is now focusing more intently on its core chemical businesses.
OCI COMPANY LTD. is a manufacturer that operates its own production plants (factories) both domestically and internationally to produce chemical products. While it actively engages in trading activities by selling its self-manufactured products to domestic and global markets, its foundation lies in manufacturing.
Conclusion: OCI COMPANY LTD. is fundamentally a Manufacturer with its own production facilities, not simply a trading company.
