"We are very happy with our decision to join the Gastonia community. North Carolina offers an attractive mix of assets and resources that will help our business succeed, and it is a great place to live and work," said Randy Dearth, LANXESS Corporation president and CEO.
A subsidiary of the German company LANXESS AG, the firm will produce high-tech polyamide (nylon) and thermoplastic polyester (PBT) that are used in lighter and safer auto parts, among other uses. More stringent fuel efficiency standards have increased demand for these products.
