Lugoff/USA – The Invista nylon site in South Carolina recently hosted a ground-breaking ceremony for its new nylon polymer facility, a milestone that represents the site’s transformation to a global nylon 6,6 production facility. The highly anticipated 90,000-square-foot facility is part of a 64-million-dollar investment over two years to enhance the site’s polymer and Cordura fiber spinning production. It will include nine loading docks, twenty-two storage/packaging silos and bulk loading capabilities.

With a strong demand for nylon polymer products, the new facility will allow the site to increase production volume of polymer to new markets, deliver newly developed polymers to the market, implement future volume expansion opportunities, and have the flexibility to meet customers’ individual packaging needs.

“We are excited to be one step closer to the transformation of the Camden site into one of Invista’s global nylon 6,6 production facilities. Our vision is built on decades of knowledge around polymer development, the flexibility to meet our customers’ needs and the strength of our teams to be world class in our operations. This transformation allows us to grow and meet the future needs of our global customers along with continued support of our local community,” said Jay Johnson, site manager.

The project is in partnership with Katoen Natie Specialty Chemicals USA with completion expected in 2024.
