Pulcra Chemicals LLC moves its headquarter and expands its operations

Pulcra Chemicals will consolidate and expand its operations at the former IsoChem facility in Rock Hill, located at 474 Bryant Blvd., as well as add new manufacturing capabilities. 

The company now can supplement its supply chain with additional in-house production. The new manufacturing and warehousing capability will be online in the second quarter of 2011. Renovation of the facilities are scheduled to begin in September and the company hopes to move in by the end of the year. 
Pulcra Chemicals expects to invest more than $2.6 million, create 15 new jobs and employ a total of 45 people.

“We are pleased to expand our company’s operations with a new facility in York County. Rock Hill and the surrounding area provide us with an excellent business environment, a strong workforce and excellent market access. We look forward to opening our new facility there and appreciate all the support we have received from state and local officials,” said Dr. Jeffrey T. Langley, president of Pulcra Chemicals LLC.

Joe E. Taylor, Secretary of the South Carolina Department of Commerce concludes: “Pulcra Chemicals is a leading supplier of specialty chemicals to a variety of industry sectors. The company is a great example of South Carolina’s continued success in attracting high-tech industries. The state’s ability to maintain and enhance the fundamentals necessary for businesses to be successful is a driver in our ability to attract new investment. By focusing on low taxes, low regulatory burdens and other factors that better the business climate here, the state helps companies like Pulcra Chemicals to be increasingly competitive. We congratulate Pulcra Chemicals on its investment in York County and wish the company much success in its endeavors."
