Arclin, a chemistry-based manufacturer of engineered products for the building, design, transportation and other industries, completed the acquisition of Surteco’s North America decorative paper treating facility in East Longmeadow, Massachusetts. Terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
Acquisition of the facility expands Arclin’s footprint in North America, complementing the company’s existing treating operations in Tacoma, WA and Cobourg, ON.
“The sale of the East Longmeadow treating facility to Arclin is a final step to return to our core competency of providing decorative surfaces and edgings to the North American market,” said Surteco North America CEO and President Michael Phillips.
Arclin provides treating for its own portfolio of designs for TFL and has significant custom-treat capacity for TFL customers. Combined with the company’s industrial surface treating assets, the company will now operate five treating facilities across North America, in addition to six chemical facilities.
