Kordsa aims to maintain its leadership position in the US market with this new facility. With this acquisition, which will ensure the sustainability of Kordsa’s facilities in the US, Kordsa Inc. will have the legal right over the land in which Invista and Kordsa were formerly located including the existing infrastructure, power generation station, and salt and polymer production lines.
