Lonza Acquires Research-Focused Chemical Company Zelam Based in New Zealand
Sep 08 2015
Lonza announced today that it has acquired Zelam, a research-focused chemical company based in New Zealand (NZ), which develops and manufactures products for crop protection, specialising in fungicides, insecticides, herbicides, foliar nutrients and additives. Zelam also develops and manufactures products for wood protection. Zelam has facilities based in New Plymouth (NZ) with field research and timber facilities nearby in New Zealand, as well as in Australia and the United States.
“We see this acquisition as an excellent opportunity to further our growth strategy for Agro Ingredients by providing entry into new strategic markets and products that are complementary to our existing Meta® business,” said Sven Abend, Chief Strategic Officer for Lonza. “It also allows Lonza to leverage Zelam’s existing agrochemical business for registration and sales into other global regions, particularly the United States, EU and South America. Zelam’s unique formulated products and patented delivery systems will benefit both the Agro Ingredients and Wood Protection markets.”
