▲ Shenton King, Vice President of Commercial Operations and delivering.“ We’ ve always managed to address changing market dynamics through new product development, expanding product lines, and expanding our knowledge most importantly,” Shenton concludes.“ That’ s what we’ ve done for generations, and that’ s what we’ ll continue to do.” Innovating and problem solving in areas like synthetic base oils, polyurethane resin performance, catalysis, corrosion protection, and anti-wear are only the tip of the iceberg for what this wonderful company is capable of. Innovating and problem solving for the world’ s largest and most advanced coatings, adhesive, lubricant, and foam companies is what we live for and love to do – and we’ re great at it. Our people are just incredible.”
When asked about the future, Shenton shares his thoughts:“ As far into the future as we can see, we know it is bright because research and new product development are ultimately driven by caring end-use consumers who understand the right balance between chemistry and performance. As consumers demand higher performance from more sustainable formulations and production processes, our goal is to help lead that journey and continue pushing the boundaries of what chemistry can achieve.” ■
