Chemical company Scott Bader is continuing to invest in Northamptonshire with a new adhesive facility at Earls Barton, based only a short distance from its Wollaston headquarters. The new facility is due for completion this month.
The move comes to improve Scott Bader’s existing production provision and meet its growing demand from international markets for its products.
Commenting on the recent addition to the portfolio, Deklyn Barnes, adhesive product manager for Scott Bader, said: “We’re delighted to be enhancing our production capabilities locally. Improving production was key to meeting our market demands but sustainability was also at the heart of the decision and this investment will help us to make improvements in this area too.”
He continued: “We became a top 10 global adhesive manufacturer in 2021, not only because of our leading adhesives but because of the company’s ethos. From its forward-thinking structure early on, to the fact that the broader sustainability agenda has always been part of our make-up, Scott Bader’s success has been built on its investment in humanity, business and ecology.”
