Our History
About Us
Negroven, S.A
In the 1950s, industrial development in Venezuela led to the establishment of four major tire factories for cars and trucks: Firestone, Goodyear, Uniroyal, and General.
The production of large quantities of tires in the country created significant demand for carbon black, an essential raw material for their manufacture. With the advantage of having ample availability of a petroleum derivative as a raw material, the idea arose to produce carbon black in Venezuela, and this idea came to fruition with the inauguration of our plant in 1962—the second of its kind to be established in South America. Thus, Negroven has shaped the history of carbon black in Venezuela.
The Negroven plant was designed to utilize the most advanced processes of its time, and over the years, it has modernized its facilities and incorporated new technologies, increasing its installed capacity from 6,000 metric tons per year at its inception to 70,000 metric tons per year, which qualifies it as a world-class plant.
