MAPEI CONCENTRATES ON INTERNATIONALIZATION

With the inauguration of its Vietnamese productive unit located in No. 47 Chu Lai Industrial Park, Mapei has made it clear that the Group’s expansion in the Far East is a Number One priority.
Starting in 1989 with the opening of Mapei Far East in Singapore, presence increased in 1994 with the inauguration of Mapei Malaysia. The Group reached China in 2004 with the opening of a consociate in Hong Kong and the launching of another two productive units in 2006: Mapei Guangzhou and Mapei Shanghai.
The internationalization process that Mapei first began in the ‘60s has benefited from strong stimuli in recent years that has let the company significantly consolidate its position as the leader in the sector of adhesives and complementary products for the laying of floors and wall facing in ceramic tile and every other material and the chemical product for the building industry sector.
