Merck and Azelis in distribution agreement

MERCK and Azelis signed another distribution agreement for Candurin pearl effect pigments. Based on the agreement, Merck will grant the distribution rights for its pigments for the food industry in Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg to Azelis, a leading distributor of specialty chemicals and food additives. Apart from logistics, Azelis is now responsible for local customer support and applications technology. In turn, Merck will support Azelis with research and development, training and regulatory matters.

Merck is already collaborating with Azelis in the United Kingdom and Ireland, as well as in Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Bulgaria, Romania, and Greece. The two companies have nurtured this successful partnership for more than 50 years.
