Since being acquired by Koch, Inc., in 2004, INVISTA has helped create robust nylon 6,6 polymer supply chains around the world. As the only supplier with adiponitrile (ADN), hexamethylene diamine (HMD) and nylon 6,6 polymer production assets in North America, Europe and China, the company has focused on providing reliable, regional supply systems to all customers.
From building the world’s largest integrated nylon 6,6 facility in China to identifying alternative raw materials to meet ISCC PLUS certification requirements, INVISTA continues to lead in innovation focused on helping our customers reach their goals.
With a commitment to financial health, INVISTA (through INVISTA Equities, LLC) maintains investment grade credit ratings of BBB/Stable and Baa2/Stable from S&P Global and Moody’s, respectively, and is a subsidiary of Koch Companies, LLC, (AA-/ Aa3 credit ratings from S&P Global and Moody’s, respectively) one of the world’s largest privately held companies. Koch’s investment philosophy is to reinvest 90% of earnings back into the business, helping support continued growth and innovation.
