Research and Development
With more than 40 personnel focused on research and development, and nearly 3% of our annual outlay, SNF is heavily invested in R&D. We believe that what is state of the art today, will be outmoded tomorrow, and strive to constantly evolve our technologies. Our portfolio is always diverse, but our current focus on Superpusher Polymers for Enhanced Oil Recovery bears expectations of higher polymer performance for the same price as the current product.
“The expected result is to obtain higher polymer performance for the same price as the current product.”
