Seppic, an Air Liquide company, announces the commissioning of its first production site in the United States, Seppic's second largest plant for the production of high-performance specialty ingredients used in the cosmetics and pharmaceutical markets.
This new plant, already in operation, gives Seppic additional production capacity of over 50 % for thickening and texturizing agents, to meet the growing demands of its customers in the United States and around the world.
Located near Richmond, Virginia, the site was strategically selected for its skilled workforce and will energize the local community by creating over 50 jobs. The site is also ideally located to serve the Northeastern U.S., where 80 % of Seppic's U.S. customers are located, and the export market.
The facility has been designed to meet the highest levels of quality in line with Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), and has already achieved ISO 9001, EFfCI and RSPO certification. The facility currently operates fully automated units to enable consistent and easily traceable quality for our ingredients. Thanks to these state-of-the-art technologies and the recycling of 95% of its waste, Seppic minimizes its impact on the environment.
Specialty ingredients for cosmetics represent a market worth over $10 billion worldwide, including $25 % in the United States.
Jean-Baptiste Dellon, CEO of Seppic, said: \"With this new plant, we are increasing our industrial capacity to serve our customers worldwide. This state-of-the-art plant is in line with Seppic's strategy of producing high-performance ingredients while respecting the environment. Our ambition in terms of CSR is to continue to meet our customers' needs while achieving our goal of reducing waste and energy consumption.\"<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
