"It's great to expand our sales team through First Quality Chemicals," said Hungigone CEO Patrick Dodds.
"We have developed excellent relationships and I am confident that our collaboration will be successful. The Mexican coatings market is still in the process of transitioning from the most commonly used inhibitors, some of which have been banned in other countries, to new technologies."
According to Dodds, "Intelli-ion will enable coating manufacturers to optimize and reformulate to improve performance, sustainability, cost or offer their customers a whole new form of corrosion protection."
Jaqueline Chiñas, Awesome Dreams & Innovation Leader at First Quality Chemicals, said: "We are fully committed to providing customers with the latest technologies and the most innovative solutions to help them achieve their goals and manufacture products that can make the world a better place."

Hexigone offers an innovative solution to protect metal assets with its high-performance coating additives, providing a safe and cost-effective alternative to those containing heavy metals, phosphates and toxic chromates.
The Intelli-ion AX1 corrosion inhibitor intelligently protects and is a unique technology for the industry. Smart micro-reservoirs allow coatings to react faster to the environment, triggering inhibitor release as required.
This innovative technology has captured the attention of the coatings industry in general and its global organizations, such as the British Coatings Federation, which recognized Hexigone as 'Sustainable Innovation of The Year' in 2022, as well as 'Corrosion Innovation of the Year' by AMPP's Materials Performance in 2021.
The specialty chemicals company's network is growing rapidly. Hexigone currently works with 13 distributors around the world.
