Chembid facilitates the purchase and sale of these special products based on market insights and product and supplier information. The SaaS platform provides access to global market data via the chembid search engine and an interactive dashboard. Market insights, such as current product demand, price developments, potential new customers and in-depth product information, simplifies and accelerates business decisions. This market information also represents genuine added value for manufacturers and buyers of coating products.
"The coating industry is of enormous importance for us. The demand for raw materials and additives used to produce paints and coatings is high. We are very pleased that the cooperation with Evonik Coating Additives will enable us to further strengthen our position in the coatings sector and, with the help of our data-driven services, make business decisions easier for companies of the coating industry," explained Christian Bürger, Managing Director of chembid.
Among other things, the platform partnership is intended to enable interested users from the coatings and additives sector to access the digital assistant via the chembid platform and vice versa.
