LANXESS Biz – It appears the economic tide may be turning at Sarnia’s LANXESS site. Forced to shut down for a few months earlier this year. Spokesperson Bernie Taylor says Lanxess is now experiencing a pickup in demand, but markets remain rather volatile. Meantime, the german-owned chemical company plans to move forward with a next generation synthetic rubber plant in Singapore in two years time. Lanxess has awarded a pilot project to its facility in Antwerp, Belgium to study new technology for the plant. Business Times magazine reported earlier this month that Sarnia was one of three sites originally being considered for the test plant, however, Taylor says that was some time ago.
