Johnson Matthey signs exclusive distribution agreement with DKSH
We've announced an exclusive distribution agreement with DKSH, a leading Market Expansion Services provider with a focus on Asia, for the distribution of our high-technology catalysts in Japan.

Under the agreement, DKSH’s Performance Material business unit will market and distribute our extensive portfolio of biocatalysts, heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysts to pharmaceutical and fine chemical companies throughout Japan.
