- PCC Rokita SA is a Poland-based chemical company engaged in the design, production, and sale of specialized chemical products and industrial formulations primarily for the plastics, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, construction, textiles, paints, and varnishes industries. Its core products include chlorine and alkali, manufactured using advanced membrane electrolysis technology; polyols under the brand name ROKOPOL® used in flexible and rigid polyurethane foams, polyurethane paints and varnishes, adhesives, sealants, and elastomers; polyester polyols under the brand ROKESTER® for construction applications; and a broad portfolio of lubricant base oils and additives under the Rokolub® brand designed for industrial and metalworking fluid formulations. The company operates advanced production complexes in multiple European countries, with significant market presence in Poland, Germany, the broader European Union, the United States, and Asia. Established in 1945 and headquartered in Brzeg Dolny, Poland, PCC Rokita is among the leading chemical companies in Poland and Europe.
In recent years, PCC Rokita has made significant strategic moves including acquiring a 25% stake in the IRPC Polyol Company Ltd., a Thai manufacturer, marking a major step to expand into Southeast Asia, China, and India markets through a joint venture. The company completed the transition of its chlorine production to an environmentally friendly membrane technology reducing CO2 emissions substantially and expanded its polyol production by launching a fourth production line. PCC Rokita also divested its subsidiary PCC Exol SA outside the PCC Rokita Capital Group to concentrate resources, while investing heavily in innovation centers and new production facilities for alkoxylates and flame-retardant hydraulic liquids. The company continues to foster sustainability, earning the EcoVadis Silver award for corporate social responsibility and being included in the RESPECT index of the Warsaw Stock Exchange for consecutive years. Its latest 2024 capital expenditures focused on expanding production capacities and innovation to enhance competitiveness and meet growing market demands globally.
