Two years after its acquisition by Holcim and one year following the rebrand from Firestone roofing, wall, and lining systems to Elevate, the business is expanding product lines and improving operations.
The expansion, expected to come on stream in the first quarter of next year, aims to address the rising demand for environmentally compatible coatings and adhesives in Asia-Pacific.
Medium molecular weight polyisobutenes are essential performance components for products in a variety of industries, used as binding, sealants, films, among others.
The new American Sealants Inc. (ASI) 30,000-square-foot plant, in Fort Wayne, Indiana, will expand ASI’s operations and create new jobs in the community.
