Mitsubishi Rayon Co has concluded a distributor contract with Myanmar Water Engineering and Products Co to strengthen its water treatment membrane business in the country.
In addition to serving as a distributor, Myanmar Water Engineering, based in Yangon, will conduct water quality analysis to help the company develop and sell water treatment membranes that meet local needs, according to Mitsubishi Rayon.
Demand for water treatment membranes is expected to grow in Myanmar where regulations on drainage are becoming tougher, an official at Mitsubishi Rayon, a unit of Mitsubishi Chemical Holdings Corp, said.
Mitsubishi Rayon has similar contracts in place in Singapore and Vietnam.
