Aurora Material Solutions reports that it recently completed the previously announced expansion of its Streetsboro, Ohio, facility.

A press release said that the expansion further extends Aurora’s capabilities in thermoplastic compounding of rigid PVCs, rigid PVC alloys and CPVC. The expansion adds over 140 million pounds of compounding capacity, creates new jobs, and supports Aurora’s continued growth with customer partners. It produces the AuroraGuard™ lines of thermoplastic polyolefins that provide high-heat, low-smoke zero-halogen and flame-retardant properties and its AuroraFlex™ line of flexible PVC compounds.

In March, Aurora Plastics became Aurora Material Solutions. With the new name, Aurora also embraced its first brand statement in its 27-year history: “People. Partners. Possibilities.”
