Asahi Kasei will reinforce marketing and capability for product proposals for the Material business sector as a whole, with automotive applications forming a key focus.

With integrated marketing in the material sector in general and the automotive industry in particular, together with R&D and technical support that swiftly and efficiently aligns with customer needs in the automotive field, Asahi Kasei Europe will enhance Asahi Kasei's presence and maximise earnings in the European market.
