Covestro opens TPU plant in Zhuhai
Polymer manufacturer Covestro has begun production at its new thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) plant in Zhuhai, South China. The first phase of the facility is expected to produce around 30,000 tons annually, supplying industries including footwear, automotive, and electronics.
The Zhuhai site is planned in three phases and will reach an annual production capacity of 120,000 tons once fully completed in the 2030s, which would make it Covestro’s largest TPU plant globally.
