facility in Peachtree City<\/a>, Ga. Through this investment, the company will create more than 20 jobs, including positions in engineering, management and production. This will be SILON’s first U.S. factory.<\/p>\nGood logistics infrastructure<\/h2>\n
The company produces and sells polyolefin-based performance compounds and polyester fibers that are then used in the construction, automotive, and medical industries. The plant will be used for manufacturing, warehousing and storage purposes.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn choosing Fayette County for this facility, SILON will find the logistics infrastructure and well-trained workforce necessary to support customers in a range of industries<\/em>,\u201d Gov. Nathan Deal said in prepared remarks.<\/p>\nIn securing this project, Georgia Department of Economic Development Project Manager Joseph Huntemann represented the Global Commerce division in partnership with the Fayette County Development Authority (FCDA). \u201cSILON will be a great asset for our community, both from the job perspective and for the capital investment they will add to our economy. In addition, we look forward to the cultural experiences that will be exchanged as a result of this international company\u2019s addition to our family<\/em>,\u201d FCDA Chairman Darryl Hicks said in prepared remarks.<\/p>\nImage courtesy of SILON<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The new $20 million factory will be used for manufacturing, warehousing and storage purposes.
