Wevo Establishes New Production Site in Singapore

Wevo is strengthening its footprint in the Asia-Pacific region by establishing a new production facility in Singapore. The new facility in the Tuas industrial area will serve as a key location to provide customers with polyurethane systems made locally, helping various industries like e-mobility, home appliances, and energy management.

With the establishment of its new production facility in Singapore, Wevo is addressing the rising demand for proven polyurethane-based potting compounds, adhesives, and sealants, positioning itself as a regional manufacturer for the Asia-Pacific market.

“Our engagement in Singapore is a central component of our globalisation and growth strategy. By investing in additional production capacity, we are making a clear commitment to a region that continues to grow dynamically – both economically and technologically,” says Daniel Thomas, Chief Executive Officer of WEVO-CHEMIE GmbH. “As a reliable partner, we support our local and international customers and enable innovative future technologies with our solutions.”

Leveraging Wevo-Chemie’s 80 years of expertise, the new facility will replicate the same production processes and quality standards as those at the company’s headquarters in southern Germany. In addition to a fully integrated production line, the site in the Tuas industrial area will also provide extensive storage and packaging capacity.

Gerd Viertel, Managing Director of WEVO Chemical (Asia-Pacific) Pte. Ltd., explains: “By manufacturing within the region for the region, we are enhancing delivery reliability for our customers and reducing response times. Additionally, our closer proximity to the market provides a robust foundation for expanding our presence in the long term and strategically leveraging opportunities in the Asia-Pacific region.”

The start of production is scheduled for the third quarter of 2026. The initial focus will be on the proven polyurethane portfolio, including polyurethane potting compounds, adhesives and sealants for electronics manufacturing for instance through dispensing under atmospheric pressure or vacuum.

With its new facility in Singapore, Wevo is continuing the systematic expansion of its presence in the Asia-Pacific region. In 2025, the company also established a new entity in India, enabling faster and more targeted on-site customer support through the development of dedicated sales structures. Together with its existing locations in Hong Kong and Guangzhou, this strengthens local service capabilities in line with Wevo’s high standards.
