Gabriel Performance Products LLC recently announced it is investing over $2 million to expand capacity in its Ashtabula, Ohio, production facility, intended to meet demand for its epoxy curing agents.

The first stage of this expansion took place in the third quarter of 2017, with the upgrade of several key pieces of equipment that had reached the end of their operational life.

Upon completion the company expects to realize another 15-20% growth in total mercaptan capacity.
