TCE is an effective solvent for organic materials with many applications in the food industry. It is also used for drying out the last bit of water for production of 100% ethanol. Trichloroethylene is also used in the dry cleaning industry; and is widely used as a degreaser for metal parts.

Valetime have worked closely with a major Chinese chemical distributor to source key chemicals produced in Romania that are required in China. Through associate companies in Romania, we now have close links to chemical manufacturers and producers in Romania & neighbouring countries.
