Successful Cooperation between Zeton and Clariant – realization of another great project
June 4, 2024
In the dynamic world of technological developments and industrial progress, cooperation between suppliers and customers is crucial. A fine example of such fruitful cooperation can be found in Clariant’s Ethoxylation project. It has led not only to innovative solutions for small, compact systems, but also to a strong and lasting relationship.
Clariant is a focused specialty chemical company headquartered in Switzerland, specializes in the production of a wide range of chemicals for various industries, with an emphasis on sustainability and innovation. Among other things, the company offers process development solutions for polymers. In the area of R&D, Clariant and Zeton have collaborated on research and development initiatives during several projects in multiple locations within and outside Europe.
How did this partnership between Zeton and Clariant come to fruition? One of the cornerstones of this collaboration is proactive thinking and the application of extensive know-how and craftsmanship. Traditional ways of thinking are challenged, which has resulted in a shift from a fixed idea, such as a project in a fume hood, to a flexible and mobile system that can be placed anywhere (see image). This approach has not only improved system efficiency but also increased flexibility.
Zeton places a strong emphasis on quality and reliability in its projects. The “First Time Right” principle was also perfectly implemented in this latest project delivered, which contributed to smooth execution and minimal disruptions during the implementation phase.
What does collaboration in the project look like for both parties? Clariant is a customer who appreciates the fact that the process is carefully managed by Zeton from the concept phase to delivery. This proactive approach helps ease their operational burden, allowing them to focus on their core business. It provides reassurance, knowing that they remain in control of the project, while Zeton ensures smooth execution which promotes efficiency.
In conclusion, the collaboration between Zeton and Clariant illustrates not only the effective delivery of small, compact systems, but also the power of a strategic partnership. It goes beyond a traditional customer-supplier relationship and reflects a shared commitment to innovation, quality, and long-term success.
