Day International, a Flint Group Company, will open its new Center for Technology and Operations Excellence in September 2007. The new state-of-the-art facility, located in Batavia, IL, will provide a centralized location for Day’s North American pressroom chemical technology and manufacturing operations.
“The new center will enhance our pressroom chemical manufacturing capabilities and allow us to better leverage our strong R&D competency,” said Dennis Wolters, president and CEO of Day International. “Consolidating our R&D and manufacturing operations into a single facility will further enable us to standardize our processes and reduce redundancy.”
Jeff Pieper, senior vice president and general manager of Day’s Chemical Products Division, said, “The new 112,000 square foot facility provides a platform from which we can better support our customers. It is a significant investment that underscores Day’s continued commitment to create more customer value.”
The new facility, which will bring approximately 40 jobs to the area, will also be used extensively for training Day’s customers and field support team.
