The seeds of innovation take root in 1983
In 1983, at the peak of Korea's industrialization, the journey of Heesung Catalysts began, planting the seeds of innovation that would shape the future. We dreamed of being more than just a company. We were driven by the belief that catalyst technology could change the world and build a better future.
The heartbeat of R&D innovation
In 1992, we founded the Technology Research Institute, the driving force behind our company. With 10 advanced catalyst development labs and over 300 specialized analytical facilities, we have pursued constant innovation. Our 354 catalyst patents stand as a testament to our dedication and passion. We take pride in leading the way in the localization of technologies across the automotive, chemical, environmental, precious metals, and electrode catalyst industries
Our compass to the catalytic future
For Heesung Catalysts, catalysis is more than just a product – it’s our vision, our compass to the future. From automotive emission catalysts to environmental catalysts to chemical process catalysts, we have changed the face of industry by providing customised solutions.
