Work continues on schedule at our new South Point plant. Major construction is finishing up and equipment commissioning began this week. We are now ramping up for commercial operation to begin in March.

The first employees started in early January. Tom Roberts, the South Point plant manager recently said, “This team is full of talent that will drive our operations towards word class. I am honored and proud to lead our team and the most technologically advanced monolithic plant in North America.”
