Released Monday, November 15, 2004
Researched by Industrialinfo.com (Industrial Information Resources, Incorporated; Houston, Texas). Firestone Polymers LLC (Akron, Ohio) is planning a third crumb rubber line at its plant located in Orange, Texas, early in 2005. Industrialinfo.com originally reported this project in May 1999, when Jacobs Engineering Group Incorporated (Houston, Texas) was providing services for this nearly $35 million project.
Firestone Polymers expects site mobilization and civil construction to begin in January, with a target completion of July or August 2005. Firestone Polymers generally plans an annual maintenance turnaround at the Orange site in the first quarter of each year, and many tie-ins for this line addition will be prepared during the first quarter 2005 turnaround.
