Press Release
MonoSol LLC, the world's leader in water-soluble, sustainable films and solutions, announces the next phase in its expansion program to dramatically increase production capacity at their global manufacturing facilities.
"For the past five years, MonoSol has developed technology that has grown worldwide consumer and commercial product demand for water soluble films and solutions. This increasing demand has been met by consistently and methodically increasing capacity at our manufacturing sites in the United States and England," said P. Scott Bening, President and CEO.
MonoSol expects to increase capacity for water soluble film manufacturing by more than 20 percent in 2010 and an additional 20 percent in 2011 and will add similar solution production capacity. This increase is being driven by advances in several growth market areas such as unit dose packaging, composite fabricating and MonoSol's unique new dust abatement solution product, TerraLOC(TM).
"In addition to adding capacity, we continue to refine and enhance our market leading technology through process improvements and streamlining technology. MonoSol's investments will be greater than $20 million over the next two years and the expansion initiative will include adding significant resources at our 16 acre, expandable LaPorte, Indiana facility," said David DeVoll, Vice President - Commercial Director Substrates.
