Our position as
the world’s No. 1 company
in fiber materials
has been reserved for us
since 50 years ago
Our position as the world’s No. 1 company in fiber materials
has been reserved for us since 50 years ago. In 2000, SK Chemicals
(now SK Discovery) and Samyang Corporation (now Samyang Holdings)
agreed to spin off the chemical fiber business,
which was the matrix of the two companies, for the development of
the fiber industry, and launch a new integrated corporation.
The combined technical know-how of the two companies and
the corporate culture of consideration and trust resulted in the birth of
Huvis in November 2000.
Having started as
a polyester specialist,
Huvis is now
transforming itself into
a materials specialist
Fiber has been with us since the life of humans began, and used
in various areas, such as clothing, everyday life, interior and
sanitary materials, and its uses are growing infinitely to include
various industrial areas like construction, civil engineering and
automobiles.
Huvis boasts of the world-best technology and the largest
production capacity in the polyester industry, which accounts for
more than 50% of the global fiber consumption.
Are not content to rest on their laurels
but are continuously expanding their domain into environmentally friendly,
high-functionality differentiated materials businesses,
including materials for automotive and industrial uses, super fibers,
and recyclable/biodegradable materials.
Huvis opens up
the infinite potential
of materials!
The development of materials enhances the value of human life.
Based on our management philosophy, i.e. advances in materials
technologies will make the world a better place for all of us,
Huvis will work harder to develop materials technologies
to enrich our tomorrow.
Huvis is opening up the infinite potential of materials.
