MOSCOW (MRC) -- The International Rubber Study Group (IRSG) has announced that Mitsubishi Corporation Plastics Ltd has joined the IRSG Panel of Associates, as per GV.
Formerly part of the Plastics Department of Mitsubishi Corporation, Mitsubishi Corporation Plastics branched off and became a company in its own right in 1989. The company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Mitsubishi, specialising in plastics and rubber. As the backbone of Mitsubishi Corporation's plastics and rubber business, the company achieves sustainable growth by responding flexibly to the various issues created by changes in the environment, while fulfilling its social responsibilities, said Mitsubishi Corporation Plastics.
The IRSG is an inter-governmental organisation composed of rubber producing and consuming stakeholders. Located in Singapore, IRSG was established in 1944. In order to facilitate the interaction between the industry and the group, a Panel of Associates with members of organisations involved in the rubber industry has been established. As of 1 July 2012, IRSG had 36 member countries and 120 industry members.
As MRC wrote before, in December 2017, Ube Industries, JSR Corp. and Mitsubishi Chemical Corp. (MCC) received European Commission (EC) approval for the planned integration of their acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) subsidiaries.
Mitsubishi Chemical with headquarters in Tokyo, Japan, is a diversified chemical company involved in petrochemicals, polymers, agrochemicals, speciality chemicals and pharmaceuticals. The company's main focus is on three business pillars: petrochemicals, performance and functional products, and health care.
