ISC Gums announced the grand opening of its new manufacturing facility in Legnica, Poland. This state-of-the-art facility will enable ISC Gums to meet the high demand from European and global customers.
Not only does this facility allow ISC Gums to support new customers in Europe, it will provide existing ISC Gums European customers with improved service and pricing. Eric Berliner, president of ISC Gums, said, “Our existing European customers were willing to pay a premium for our superior quality. Now that we are supplying them locally, we can support them with improved service and pricing.”
The location selection was strategic due to its proximity to customer manufacturing facilities in the growing Eastern European region and the highly skilled, educated workforce in the immediate area. The new facility spans more than 30,000 square feet and created 15 new jobs with an estimated increase of five employees, with the acquisition of new business expected over the next two years. This new production facility was an important piece in ISC Gums growth strategy. ISC Gums continues to invest in growth, featuring key hires in Quality Control, Research and Development, Production and Marketing.
Future investment projects include, a new Research and Development laboratory, new agglomeration technology and additional blending equipment.
