Gent, April 2003:

Taminco is constantly improving the safety of its production processes for enhanced product quality, efficiency and safety. In this frame, the production of Methylamines and most of the derivatives in Gent, Belgium, had to be shut down for a period of 4 weeks in May, because of investment and maintenance works. The service to our customers will not be affected, as sufficient stock has been built and the production keeps running at our site in Leuna, Germany.
