Univar Solutions has expanded its strategic partnership with BASF Petrochemicals, strengthening the distribution network for Hexamoll DINCH across North America. The agreement designates Univar Solutions as the exclusive distributor of Hexamoll DINCH in the United States and Canada, creating broader market access for customers seeking non-phthalate plasticizer solutions. The move reflects growing demand for safer and more sustainable materials in industrial and consumer applications.
Under the broader agreement, Univar Solutions will combine its integrated distribution network, technical capabilities, and commercial support offering to allow customers across North America easier access to Hexamoll DINCH. BASF will remain the supplier of the substance and enjoy an enlarged distribution channel with an expanded logistics network and existing customer network from Univar Solutions. The partnership aims to improve product availability and support across multiple industries.
Hexamoll DINCH has emerged as a preferred non-phthalate plasticizer for manufacturers seeking high-performance alternatives to traditional plasticizers. The product delivers formulation flexibility while meeting stringent safety and quality requirements. As regulatory scrutiny increases across global markets, manufacturers continue adopting solutions that align with evolving environmental and health standards. Therefore, Hexamoll DINCH has become increasingly important for applications requiring reliable performance and compliance.
According to industry analysis, there is an increasing demand for non-phthalate plasticizers in the medical, consumer, and industrial fields. The growing trends have forced BASF and Univar Solutions to increase their collaboration. Through the exclusive distribution agreement, customers can access Hexamoll DINCH more efficiently while receiving technical guidance and application support from industry specialists.
The expanded partnership also demonstrates the increasing importance of distribution channels in the specialty chemicals industry. Companies are concentrating on developing innovative products and improving production facilities, while distributors contribute value in terms of technical support, logistics, and customer service. Thus, the adoption cycle is reduced, as well as increasing satisfaction for customers along the value chain.
Univar Solutions emphasized that the partnership supports its strategy of enhancing supplier relations and developing its range of sustainable chemical solutions. In addition, the partnership should help customers who require a safe, effective alternative to meet regulatory needs. The company’s extensive distribution network in North America will supply Hexamoll DINCH to various markets.
Meanwhile, BASF continues advancing its portfolio of innovative plasticizer technologies. The company has focused on developing products that address customer demands for enhanced safety and sustainability. Through the strengthened partnership, BASF can expand the reach of Hexamoll DINCH while ensuring customers receive comprehensive technical and commercial support. This collaborative approach is expected to drive further adoption of the product across key industries.
The high-performance characteristics and range of application of Hexamoll DINCH are widely known throughout the industry. Hexamoll DINCH is employed by manufacturers in applications where strength, flexibility, and demanding safety requirements must be met, along with supporting formula needs in those industries where safety remains an integral requirement. Its reputation for these attributes has increased market acceptance and demand globally.
The announcement arrives as companies throughout the chemicals sector seek resilient supply chains and dependable distribution partners. The expanded partnership between BASF and Univar Solutions should position the company to offer better services to customers and enhance market coverage. It is anticipated that this partnership will contribute to a higher availability of products and strengthen Hexamoll DINCH's position as a leading non-phthalate plasticizer in North America.
