Woongjin Chemical

Saehan was established in 1972 with the capital and technology of Cheil Synthetic Fiber Inc., which was an affiliated company of Samsung. Since then, Saehan has been a leading company in the domestic synthetic and chemical fiber industry for more than 3 decades. Saehan specifically focused its resources in manufacturing high valued added products.

Moreover, Saehan successfully developed reverse osmosis membranes in early 1990s for the first time in Korea. Since then, we have expanded our business scope in the filter industry by developing water purifying filters, micro filters, reverse osmosis membranes for sea water desalination, and fouling resistant reverse osmosis membranes. Furthermore, Saehan is directing its resources and management strategies toward developing Environment & Material Business, thereby allowing Saehan to be equipped with facilities which produce industrial sheets.

Saehan received the World First Class Product Award from the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy for its polyester flame-retardant fabric and high bulky polyester staple fiber in 2002. Saehan again received this award in 2003 for its suede stretch fabric and fouling resistant reverse osmosis membrane. Also in the New Tech Korea 2002, Saehan’s high rejection reverse osmosis membrane for sea water desalination received the Prime Minister medal. Saehan has manifested the capability to develop the latest technology with unique features.

Under the company motto of ‘what’s good for nature is also good for humans’, Saehan has strived to produce environmentally friendly goods. In recognizing this green keeping effort, Saehan received the Greatest Statue in Environment in 1993, and the ISO-14001 certification for all processing units in 1997. Saehan has built up a flawless reputation and worked hard to keep up with clients’ expectations.
