Acrylic acid and superabsorbent polymers form our core business.
Nippon Shokubai boasts the world's top-class production capacity for acrylic acid.
We produce not only acrylic acid but also derivative products, such as acrylates and superabsorbent polymers.
These products are used as raw materials for paints, adhesives and diapers. Since they are in high demand, our plants continue to operate at full production capacity.
In order to respond to the growing demand for acrylic acid, Nippon Shokubai is strengthening its supply system around the world.

We have improved our ability to respond through the establishment of a supply system incorporating offshore production bases.
Demand for acrylic acid and super absorbent polymers is increasing worldwide year by year. By establishing overseas production facilities, Nippon Shokubai is responding to this demand. In this way our operations are expanding throughout the world while our ability to supply in a responsive manner is strengthened.
