| About | In Taiwan Trading company Expanding Processed plastic products are developed in coordination with production of HDPE at our Hsinkang plants. Production of shopping bags, roll bags, garbage bags and other products has reached a yearly capacity of 14, 000 MT. Our fiber products include acrylic staple fiber and carbon fiber. Our yearly capacity of 105, 000 MT of acrylic fiber makes us Taiwan's largest producer of the product. The carbon precursor needed to produce the 1, 850 MT / Y of carbon fiber was developed by our company. We are one of the few companies in the world to have developed this product, which has greatly contributed to the development of the high-tech sector in Taiwan. In response to the government's call for the development of high value-added products and precision chemical industries, we also produce specialty chemicals such as acrylic acid, esters, hydrochloro- Fluorocarbons (HCFCs) , AN, MMA, ECH and MTBE. Yearly capacity of acrylic acids and esters stands at 202, 000 MT, making us the largest producer in Taiwan. To utilize high purity acrylic acid (HPAA) produced by our acrylic acid and ester plant, we have built a super absorbent polymer plant with an annual production capacity of 30, 500 MT in the Hsinkang industrial zone. This facility is the only super absorbent polymer production plant in Taiwan. Annual production capacity of AN currently stands at 240, 000 MT / Y, making us the largest producer in Taiwan and supplied to our Acrylic Fiber plant and FCFC's ABS plant. Annual production capacity of MMA stands at 70, 000 MT / Y. Annual production capacity of ECH stands at 80, 000 MT / Y, making us the largest in Asia and mainly supplied to affiliate Nan Ya Plastics for epoxy production. Annual production capacity of MTBE stands at 151, 000 MT / Y, mainly supplied to our affiliate Formosa Petrochemical as gasoline additives. We also produce 25, 000 MT / Y of POM, another product developed using our own technology. Our calcium carbonate products include Taical, U-cal, raw lime and light master batch. We are Taiwan's only producer of calcium carbonate. FPC has established an Engineering & Construction Division, which not only provides public utilities, but also handles engineering design & planning. In addition, a piping prefabrication shop was established to meet piping demands for FPG's Sixth Naphtha Cracker Project, using automatic equipment to improve the efficiency and quality of our work. In accordance with the company's strategy of diversification, an Electronics Department was established. This department has undertaken a special project, which had given us full capability in programming software and hardware for automated design and planning. We have also worked with Fuji Electric of Japan on large-scale dispersed machinery and the design and production of distributed control system (DCS) . Furthermore, in 1999 technology for plasma display panel (PDP) was acquired from North America to establish a large-scale PDP manufacturing plant We established Formosa Plasma Display Corporation with Fujitsu Hitachi Plasma Display Limited (FHP) for annual capacity of 120, 000 sets PDP and the plant was commenced production now. We are currently pushing ahead with the Sixth Naphtha Cracking Project, which includes a total of twelve plants producing PVC, VCM, C4, Caustic Soda, MMA, ECH, AN, AA / AE, HDPE, EVA, LLDPE and Carbon Fiber. All the plants were completed and commenced production. Now, we are pushing the debottlenecking & expansion plan of phase IV of the Sixth Naphtha Cracking Project. When these plants come on-line, they will not only add the company's operating revenue, but they will also help to relieve the national shortage of basic petrochemical raw materials. As the output of the above plants can be further processed into specialty chemicals and engineering plastics, the plants are indispensable to the upgrading of the local plastics, electronics and synthetic fiber industries. |
