NOVA CHEMICALS PLANS ARCEL CAPACITY EXPANSION

February 24, 2005 by  

Nova Chemicals Corporation is planning a series of expansions of Arcel mouldable foam resin manufacturing capacity to 100 million pounds per year by the end of 2006. Arcel resin combines the toughness of polyethylene and the processability of polystyrene to yield a resilient inter-polymer packaging material

Our Arcel business has tripled in size during the last two years by delivering significant benefits to the multi-billion-pound protective foam packaging market,” said Chris Pappas, senior vice president and president of Styrenics for Nova Chemicals. “In addition to offering multiple-impact resistance and damage protection, Arcel resin delivers a lower total cost to OEMs by reducing package sizes, lowering transportation costs and improving space and cube efficiency.”
