作为其战略增长计划的一部分,路博润公司正在将其美国俄亥俄州埃文湖工厂的 Solsperse™ 超分散剂产能提高一倍。此次扩建将增强该公司满足涂料和油墨配方中使用的高性能分散剂不断增长的需求的能力,并支持预计到 2025 年产量的进一步增加。
该工厂于 2014 年首次开始生产 Solsperse 超分散剂,由于这项新投资,现在将能够处理更大量的原材料。这些分散剂因其在从涂料到工业产品的广泛应用中增强颜料分散的能力而闻名。
路博润高性能涂料总监 Sharon Kirk 表示:“凭借产能的扩大,路博润已做好充分准备,为北美涂料行业提供服务,提供减少能源使用和浪费的可持续解决方案。” “这项投资还强化了我们对可持续发展的承诺,通过减少与生产和运输相关的碳足迹,帮助我们的客户实现环境目标。”
路博润的扩张紧随其位于北卡罗来纳州的涂料生产工厂的另一项重大发展之后进行,该公司今年早些时候宣布额外增加产能。
“涂料行业的许多领域继续快速增长,”路博润高性能涂料副总裁 Marco Fay 表示。 “我们的投资巩固了我们对客户的承诺,即我们是不断进步的合作伙伴,他们可以信赖我们将新的涂料创新变为现实。从 100% 活性剂到含有生物成分的水基分散剂,再到用于工业和防护涂料的高性能添加剂,路博润帮助我们的客户实现其可持续发展计划和增长目标。”
Lubrizol expands dispersant production capacity in North America
As part of its strategic growth plan, Lubrizol Corporation is doubling the production capacity of Solsperse™ Hyperdispersants at its Avon Lake, Ohio, U.S.A., facility. The expansion will bolster the company’s ability to meet the growing demand for high-performance dispersants used in coatings and ink formulations, and support further production increases projected for 2025.
The facility, which first started producing Solsperse Hyperdispersants in 2014, will now be able to handle larger volumes of raw materials, thanks to this new investment. The dispersants are known for their ability to enhance pigment dispersion in a wide range of applications, from coatings to industrial products.
“With this expanded capacity, Lubrizol is well-positioned to serve the North American coatings industry, providing sustainable solutions that reduce energy use and waste,” said Sharon Kirk, director of Performance Coatings at Lubrizol. “This investment also reinforces our commitment to sustainability, helping our customers meet environmental goals by reducing the carbon footprint associated with production and transportation.”
Lubrizol’s expansion comes on the heels of another major development at its coatings production facility in North Carolina, where the company announced additional capacity increases earlier this year.
“Many segments of the coatings industry continue to rapidly grow,” said Marco Fay, vice president, Performance Coatings, Lubrizol. “Our investments solidify our commitment to our customers that we are partners in progress who they can count on to bring new coating innovations to life. From 100% active, to water-based, bio-content containing dispersants, to high-performing additives for industrial and protective coatings, Lubrizol helps our customers achieve their sustainability initiatives and growth targets.”
