Synthite

Synthite Ltd founded in West Bromwich in 1920 to produce resins but soon became a successful manufacturer of formaldehyde. In 1928 the business was incorporated into the Charles Tennant Group, a diverse international network of manufacturing and distribution companies. 1950 saw formaldehyde production begun at the newly acquired plant at the Alyn Works in Mold, North Wales and in 1991 all production moved to North Wales. Since 2014 it has acquired amino resin manufacturing facilities in Mold and Cork from Dynea and renamed that business TS Resin and Marinochem.
