South Carolina Plant History

Phase I & II

The South Carolina plant began with Phase I in 1990. When construction finished, the plant produced several polyester (PET) products, including PET resin, POY filament, and staple fiber. Phase II was completed in 1995, adding bottle and packaging grade PET resin to the plant’s production capabilities.

Phase III, IV, & V

With the success of the previous two phases, capital projects (Phase III & Phase IV) were initiated in 1995 to increase the total production capacity. By 1999, the South Carolina plant had more than doubled its capacity and introduced two new products, HOY and FDY filament. By 2000, the final expansion (Phase V) was complete, further increasing the plant’s bottle and packaging resin capacity to its present size. In 2002, modifications were completed allowing the production of Conjugate Fiber and Low Melt Fiber.
Through our mission statement and continuous improvements to our process and management systems, the South Carolina plant continues to demonstrate a commitment to safety, environmental conservation, and quality.
