Ultimate RB (a division of Accella Performance Materials), announced it has expanded its capacity for specialty rolled rubber production by 40 percent at its Delphos, Ohio facility. This expansion will allow the company to better meet the needs of its customers. The equipment installed includes a larger manufacturing process and a state-of-the-art cutting machine. A modernized addition to the plant was built to accommodate this new equipment. This new capacity is expected to reduce lead times on specialty rolled rubber products.
"We are very pleased to implement this investment to better meet the needs of our customers by expanding our capacity for specialty rolled rubber flooring and underlayment production. We are grateful to our operations team at the Delphos facility to complete this important expansion," said Hal Stuhl, vice president of Ultimate RB.
