Recently, GS Biomats and Kolon Industries (Korea), one of the world's leading chemical producers, officially signed a strategic cooperation agreement and entered into a long-term partnership. This cooperation is an important initiative for Kolon Industries to promote its sustainable business solutions, aiming to rely on the unique advantages of both parties in the industry: the technological and production advantages of GS Biomats in furan biobased materials, combined with Kolon Industries' rich experience in polymer manufacturing technology and the market, to jointly promote the commercial supply of high-purity quality furan dicarboxylic acid (FDCA) and the research and development of downstream applications, and to accelerate the promotion of diversified applications of furan biobased materials in the global market. We will jointly promote the commercialized supply of high-purity FDCA and the research and development of downstream applications, so as to accelerate the diversified application of furan biobased materials in global markets.
Based on the deep trust and cooperation foundation previously established, both parties have further defined their core responsibilities and objectives in the cooperation. GS Biomats has completed the construction of the quality standard system for high-purity quality FDCA, and is committed to completing the commercial delivery of high-quality, highly stable and consistent FDCA on schedule.

As an important promoter of the industrial chain, Kolon Industry highly recognizes the technology and commercialization ability of GS Biomats, and will use FDCA as the core raw material to carry out in-depth application research and development and marketing of downstream polyester material - polyethylene glycol furandicarboxylate (PEF), and to accelerate the application innovation of FDCA in multiple fields. We will accelerate the application innovation of FDCA in many fields.
In the wave of global green revolution, the strategic cooperation between GS Biomats and Kolon Industries marks a solid step forward in the sustainable development of the two companies. This cooperation not only signals the acceleration of innovation and market application of furan bio-based material technology, but also plays an important role in the green transformation of the global chemical industry. Through this strategic alliance, the two companies are expected to inspire more enterprises to unleash their green potential and jointly build a global sustainable materials ecosystem.
