About Synthomer
We are a speciality chemical company and one of the world’s foremost suppliers of water-based polymers with leadership positions in many markets. Our polymers help customers create innovative new products and enhance the performance of existing products in key industries such as coatings, construction, adhesives, paper and nitrile medical gloves. The acquisition of the highly complementary OMNOVA Solutions Inc in April 2020 has extended the group’s geographic reach, expanded the global platform and will accelerate the further differentiation of the business.

We have operational headquarters in London, UK, and provide customer-focused services from regional centres in Harlow, UK; Marl, Germany; Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; and Beachwood, Ohio, USA.

Core Values.
Our core values are intended to become our guiding compass describing what we aspire to as a company. At the same time they outline clearly what is expected of each of us individually. It is important to recognise it not only matters what we do, but also how we do it. We see this as even more important as delivery of our business strategy is creating a larger and more geographically and culturally diverse organisation.​
