Sabic is merging its technology and innovation operations from its Pittsfield, MA; Exton, PA and Selkirk, NY locations. The consolidation of the combined research and development expertise will take place as soon as the necessary modifications to Selkirk facilities are completed, which is estimated in 2017, according to the company. At that time, Sabic will exit its Pittsfield Polymer Processing Development Center (PPDC) and close its Exton site.
“This integration will not only drive important efficiencies, it will also merge material science, process engineering and application development into a collaborative environment that will lead to new innovation breakthroughs,” says Awadh Al-Maker, executive vice president, Sabic Technology & Innovation.
Sabic’s specialties portfolio offers solutions including composites, functional surfaces and substrates, additive manufacturing solutions, part design, finished parts and materials processing expertise.
