Permacel, the pressure-sensitive tape subsidiary of
Nitto Americas, has announced a manufacturing facilities consolidation
that will result in the closure of its North Brunswick, NJ, production
plant.
"This is part of an ongoing process," said
J. Craig Markel, Permacel's executive vice president and COO. "We
are continually refining our resources, enhancing our products, improving
our value as a supplier and forging new technologies, all part of our
strategy to better meet customers' needs."
Markel said that Permacel's corporate headquarters will
remain in the North Brunswick area, as they have been since Nitto Denko
acquired the company in 1988. Employees at the headquarters will continue
to direct operations, sales and administrative activities of Permacel's
remaining New Jersey plant in Lakewood, as well as other Permacel operations
nationwide. "In addition to our Lakewood, NJ, plant, we have Permacel
facilities in Livonia, MI, Buena Park, CA, and Pleasant Prairie, WI,"
Markel said.
