Sherwin-Williams Enters Resin Game
Sherwin-Williams is acquiring Specialty Polymers, Inc., a leading manufacturer and developer primarily of water-based polymers used in architectural and industrial coatings and other applications. The business operates production facilities in Woodburn, Ore. and Chester, SC and employs 150.
In addition to Specialty Polymers’ significant current resin capacity, the opportunity arises to add millions of pounds of additional capacity to its footprint in the near term with relatively minimal investment.
Specialty Polymers is the parent company of Roo Glue and TorZo Surfaces.
