Hanwha Chemical Corporation of Korea selected bluebee^® to optimize inspection planning and execution at its plant located in Ningbo Daxie Development Zone, Zhenjiang province, China.

The plant boasts an annual production of 0.3 million tons of PVC, 0.5 million tons of EDC, and 0.3 million tons of VCM. By producing environmentally-friendly and high-quality products, Hanwha Chemical is targeting the world's largest PVC market, China. Production started at the end of 2010.

Founded in 1952, the Hanwha Group () has diversified and grown steadily into a conglomerate with 44 domestic affiliates and a global network that spans 56 locations. Our global future is based on the synergy created among 3 main sectors (manufacturing & construction, finance and services & leisure) and the ongoing development of overseas markets.

Hanwha Chemical was established in 1965, began producing Korea's first polyvinyl chloride (PVC) in 1966, and subsequently pioneered the localization of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) production, laying the groundworks for the nation to emerge as a leading chemical producer. In the 1980s, the company entered the chlor-alkali (CA) field ahead of all other Korean chemical producers and then diversified into organic and inorganic chemical products. HCC's state-of the-art research facilities and continued technological innovation have dramatically improved our technological capabilities and quality competitiveness to make us a leader in the PVC, LLDPE, LDPE, and CA markets not only in Korea, but in Asia as well.
