Mitsui Chemicals Inc. and Polyplastics Co. Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Daicel Corp., have announced that the companies have entered into a contract regarding marketing operations for engineering plastics products, specifically ARLEN® and AURUM® brands developed and sold by Mitsui Chemicals.

Under this contract, starting 1 January 2026, Mitsui Chemicals will consign certain marketing operations to Polyplastics. Polyplastics will exclusively handle marketing activities such as customer interface, new customer development, and technical support.

Mitsui Chemicals will continue to handle research and development, manufacturing, logistics, and other such business operations for ARLEN and AURUM. There are no plans to change commercial distribution or related procedures.

Mitsui Chemicals aims to achieve further business growth by leveraging Polyplastics' customer network and solution capabilities to meet the growing demand for high-performance engineering plastics. Meanwhile, Polyplastics will enhance its ability to provide solutions to an even larger number of customers by enriching its product portfolio with the addition of marketing operations for these products.

Both companies will explore further opportunities to deepen their collaboration in the future.
