These international standards cover areas of Quality, Environmental, Health and Safety, Automotive, Medical Device, Responsible Care and Energy Management. We continue to actively monitor the developing regulatory activities at state, national and global levels with respect to per and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). We continue to actively monitor the developing regulatory activities at state, national and global levels with respect to per and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).

Once completed, the site will host a fully functional physical testing lab, a sophisticated analytical lab, a wet chemistry facility, and dedicated process capabilities, including multi-scale twin-screw extruders, reactive extrusion, and various injection molding machines. 

Our materials are a key component in the supply chain that allows for food, beverage and medical supplies to continue to be produced, packaged, shipped and used. This includes masks, protective garments, medical tubing and packaging for personal care products.
