Business
UPC Technology Corporation (1313:TW) manufactures and sells petrochemical and specialty chemical products in Taiwan and internationally. The company produces phthalic anhydride (PA), maleic anhydride (MA), fumaric acid (FA), general and specialty plasticizers including non-phthalate, polymeric, linear, adipate, trimellitate, bio-based, and other variants; polyvinyl chloride (PVC) resin; unsaturated polyester resins (UPR); polyester polyols; fatty acid esters; and other specialty chemicals such as water-based polyurethane, PVC stabilizers, and epoxy resins. UPC also provides logistics services encompassing chemical storage, trading, terminal operations, pipeline transfer, road transportation, warehousing, and consultancy. Founded in 1976 and headquartered at 9F, Building A, No. 209, Section 1, Nangang Road, Nangang District, Taipei City 115, Taiwan, UPC operates production facilities and subsidiaries across Taiwan, Greater China (including Mainland China locations in Zhuhai, Panjin, Nanchong, Zhenjiang, and Taizhou), Southeast Asia (Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand), and Hong Kong. As a leading member of the MiTAC-Synnex Group, it benefits from the conglomerate's global presence spanning chemicals, IT, and distribution sectors. The company's market scope extends to Taiwan, Mainland China, Southeast Asia, Japan, the Middle East, India, Africa, New Zealand, Australia, the United States, and Canada. In August 2024, UPC signed a memorandum of understanding with BASF to advance long-term collaboration on plasticizer alcohols and catalysts for phthalic anhydride production, enhancing production capabilities and sustainability initiatives. The company continues to emphasize R&D for eco-friendly products, including bio-based plasticizers, while expanding its logistics and trading services to support core chemical operations. UPC maintains its position as a top global producer of phthalic anhydride and plasticizers through vertical and horizontal integration.
