Manufacturing
TK Chemical, which was founded in 1965 as Dongkuk Trading Corp., is a leading chemical materials company representing Korea with cutting-edge technology and know-how accumulated over a period of five decades.
Running a single business over a long period of time is not easy. However, TK Chemical has been working with customers to create what they want for 50 years, overcoming numerous obstacles. We are TK Chemical, a company creating outstanding products with advanced technology, always working closely with customers, and with the goal to build a 100-year history of everyday chemicals in Korea.
In order to localize the domestic transparent PET bottle recycling market that was dependent on imported products, we have established the first K-rPET (domestic recycled PET) mass production system in Korea. The new K-rPET business is a future growth engine in preparation for the growing eco-friendly demand with the era of peeling environment, and will establish itself as a core business of TK Chemical.
