Siltech Corporation, a global provider of organo-functional silicone specialties, announced a major expansion of its manufacturing facilities. A new, state of the art, grassroots manufacturing plant is in the final engineering design and approval stages. The new, more than 200,000 sq. ft.  plant will be constructed on 33 acres of land in Fort Erie, Ontario.   Ground breaking will take place this summer and the plant is expected to come on-stream in early 2024.  This facility will not only double Siltech’s nameplate capacities of the existing two plants in Toronto and Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, but will accommodate modern semi-continuous processing technologies, as well as introduction of new product lines.
