Established in 2005, Polymer Factory concentrates on developing well defined dendrimers and dendron based on 2,2-bis(methylol)propionic acid,[1] where the company has the exclusive right to the production, marketing, and sales of such materials.[citation needed] The company also provides tailor-made hyperbranched polymers.[2] Polymer Factory's research lab is located in Stockholm, Sweden.[3]
