US-based speciality silicone maker AB Specialty Silicones says it has completed a significant renovation and expansion of its R&D and QA location tripling the area. Additional laboratory facilities and equipment have increased technical capabilities for product analysis and performance matching that will enhance product development, performance testing and technical service.
The lab expansion also includes an intermediary scale up area equipped with pilot reactors used to bring new products from the lab to the marketplace. These improvements combined with an increase in manufacturing and storage completed earlier in 2018 all support AB Specialty Silicones’ growth and commitment to put customers first with product innovation, US-based manufacturing and warehousing allowing for shorter lead times.
