Aim to double business size Rhodia chairman and CEO, Jean-Pierre Clamadieu, said that there are plans to double the size of the acquired business over the next five years. "The growth revenues will be driven by strong synergies in terms of both the product and customer portfolio, such as accelerating the international market penetration of Feixiang's products thanks to Rhodia Novecare's global network," said Hufer. "In addition, the Rhodia expertise and know-how in formulation and applications will offer strong cross-selling opportunities for Feixiang products serving strategic Rhodia markets such as Home and Personal Care," he added. Headquartered in Zhangjiagang, near Shanghai, with around 650 employees, Feixiang has achieved top line growth of 20 per cent on average over the past five years, according to Rhodia.
