Huntsman Closing Four Color Plants, Keeping Augusta in Restructuring Plans
Friday, March 6th, 2015
Huntsman Corp., which is building a manufacturing facility in south Augusta, announced plans Thursday to restructure its color pigment business, including the closure of facilities similar to Augusta’s proposed plant.
By the end of the year, Huntsman will close plants in St. Louis, Cartersville, Ga., King of Prussia, Pa., and Hainhausen, Germany. The plan will eliminate 120 jobs in the division and result in $20 million in savings or cost reductions.
