It is a positive problem that the industry never sits still. New chemicals, products and enhanced processing techniques are being introduced into the market every year, meaning safety standards are often changing and legislation is never complete.

SICOMIN has a dedicated research and development department whose sole purpose is to study, research, test and anticipate these changes. This same team then works directly alongside the customer to formulate tailor-made products that adhere to these latest legislations and standards whilst also optimising performance and controlling cost.
