The second acquired business, Polystrand, operates on the leading edge of continuous reinforced thermoplastic composite technology, a next generation material science that delivers the high strength and lightweight characteristics of composites, further enhanced with the design flexibility to form more complex shapes. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those implied by these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: unexpected costs that may arise from the announced acquisition of the Gordon Composites and Polystrand businesses; any material adverse changes in the acquired businesses; our ability to achieve the strategic and other objectives relating to the acquired businesses, including any expected synergies; our ability to successfully integrate the acquired businesses and achieve the expected results of the acquisition, including, without limitation, the acquisition being accretive; our ability to realize anticipated savings and operational benefits from the realignment of assets, including the closure of manufacturing facilities; the timing of closings and shifts of production to new facilities related to asset realignments and any unforeseen loss of customers and/or disruptions of service or quality caused by such closings and/or production shifts; separation and severance amounts that differ from original estimates; amounts for non-cash charges related to asset write-offs and accelerated depreciation realignments of property, plant and equipment, that differ from original estimates; our ability to identify and evaluate acquisition targets and consummate acquisitions; the ability to successfully integrate acquired companies into our operations, retain the management teams of acquired companies and retain relationships with customers of acquired companies; disruptions, uncertainty or volatility in the credit markets that could adversely impact the availability of credit already arranged and the availability and cost of credit in the future; the financial condition of our customers, including the ability of customers (especially those that may be highly leveraged and those with inadequate liquidity) to maintain their credit availability; the speed and extent of an economic recovery, including the recovery of the housing market; our ability to achieve new business gains; the effect on foreign operations of currency fluctuations, tariffs and other political, economic and regulatory risks; changes in polymer consumption growth rates and laws and regulations regarding the disposal of plastic in jurisdictions where we conduct business; changes in global industry capacity or in the rate at which anticipated changes in industry capacity come online; fluctuations in raw material prices, quality and supply and in energy prices and supply; production outages or material costs associated with scheduled or unscheduled maintenance programs; unanticipated developments that could occur with respect to contingencies such as litigation and environmental matters; an inability to achieve or delays in achieving or achievement of less than the anticipated financial benefit from initiatives related to working capital reductions, cost reductions and employee productivity goals; an inability to raise or sustain prices for products or services; an inability to maintain appropriate relations with unions and employees; our ability to continue to pay cash dividends; the amount and timing of repurchases of our common shares, if any; and other factors affecting our business beyond our control, including, without limitation, changes in the general economy, changes in interest rates and changes in the rate of inflation.

Utilizing existing pipe systems enables the transition from natural gas to hydrogen delivery quickly and economically. PlastiComp™ then took the carbon tows and formed a high-strength tape coated with an adhesion promoting layer, a critical component of the renewal system.

These dispersions of PVC resins, in liquid form at room temperature, can be combined with heat or light stabilizers, color pigments, flame retardants, blowing agents and other required additives.

Available in masterbatch pellets, powder form or liquid, they utilize endothermic, exothermic or an endothermic/ exothermic blend of chemistries to fit the required applications. They are commonly used for: • Weight reduction/cost savings • Sink mark removal • Shrinkage and warpage reduction • Nucleation • Assisting direct gas foaming NOTE: Low gas yield products are optimized for assisting direct gas injection, nucleation, warpage reduction and sink mark removal. Chemistries and gas initiation temperatures are available for a wide range of resins.
