Omnova Solutions has expanded manufacturing capability for its Pliotec water-based acrylic coating resins to include three locations in the U.S. The expansion is part of the integration of Eliokem—acquired in December 2010—into Omnova’s Performance Chemicals business unit. In addition to existing manufacturing at the former Eliokem site in Akron, Ohio/USA, Pliotec resins will be produced at Omnova’s facilities in Chester, South Carolina and Fitchburg, Massachusetts. Pliotec 7104 and Pliotec PA05 resins will be available immediately from the Chester facility.
