Eastman Chemical Company has completed expansion of specialty copolyester capacity at its manufacturing site in Columbia, S.C. The additional copolyester production is expected to come on-line June 2008.
This expansion is in line with its plans to increase global copolyester manufacturing capacity by transitioning legacy PET manufacturing assets to large-scale copolyester assets at its South Carolina site, the location of the company's PET facility based on IntegRex™ technology. In addition to its facility in Kingsport, Tenn., this site is now the second Eastman facility in North America producing the copolyester family of specialty plastics.
