1993'S

Since technology laboratory was established in 1993,
our own technology development has been independently carried with a great effort
to create environmental-friendly products and performance materials
for the future in the rapidly changing global economic situation.

40 Years

For last 40 years, this laboratory has put great emphasis on enhancing the value of customers through providing them high qualify products and skills in times on the basis of specialties that has been obtained in the field of cross-linked polyolefin foam for automobiles, buildings and industries. All the researchers have done their best to enhance our own value along with customers through developing core technology and improving product qualities by means of constant technological innovation and study. Moreover, we will share newly developed technologies and products with customers, promote mutual development with related fields, open the window of the laboratory to get every customers involved.

Pioneering

The history of technology of Youngbo Chemical is none other than the history of development of Korean cross-linked Polyolefin foam industry.
Now Youngbo technology laboratory will open the productive future of Chemical industry with you customers and write new history until Korea is the best and strongest nation in the Chemical industry.
