We’re thrilled to welcome Chimen Srl to the OQEMA Group. With this latest step, we continue to strengthen our European network and grow our capabilities, this time in northern Italy. Based in San Doná di Piave, Chimen brings decades of experience in distributing solvents, plasticisers, and thinners, along with impressive in-house logistics and tank storage.

What makes this addition even more special?

Chimen shares many of our values: a strong focus on sustainability, a commitment to safety, and a culture shaped by nearly 50 years of family leadership.

We are pleased that the acquisition of this medium-sized, family-run company, which closely aligns with OQEMA's culture, was possible

Phillipp Junge
Chief Operating Officer

This acquisition strengthens our strategic presence in Southern Europe and allows us to further deepen our logistics capabilities in Italy. Chimen’s strong customer relationships and operational excellence are an ideal match with OQEMA’s growth ambition and service philosophy
