Ingenia adding space to Houston Plant
Firm putting site in Saudi Arabia

Signs of an economic slowdown are nowhere to be found at Ingenia Polymers Corp.

The Houston-based compounder and concentrate maker is completing a $9 million project that will add 25,000 square feet and 120 million pounds of capacity at its Houston plant.

And if that's not enough, Ingenia will open a 200,000-square-foot plant in Dammam, Saudi Arabia, by mid-2009. That plant will be the first outside of North America for Ingenia, which also operates plants in Brantford, Ontario, and Calgary, Alberta. Earlier this year, a new twin-screw line with 15 million pounds of annual capacity was installed in Brantford.

In Houston, a massive new twin-screw making polyolefin-based carbon-black concentrates will be up and running by midyear, said John Lefas, Ingenia president and chief executive officer, during a recent interview. In Houston, Lefas cited growth in technical and high-value-added products such as pipe, wire and cable, geomembranes and films as reasons for expansion, which will create 15 new jobs.
