Strategic Initiatives
Growth programs, investments, and their expected impact
Consolidating North American gas cylinders and magnesium powders operations by ceasing manufacturing at the Pomona, California facility and centralizing production at the Riverside, California and Saxonburg, Pennsylvania facilities.
Expected impact: Expected to optimize the manufacturing footprint, reduce the fixed cost base, and generate approximately $6 million in long-term annual savings.
Divesting non-core, lower-margin operations to concentrate resources on high-barrier, high-value materials engineering applications in the Elektron and Gas Cylinders segments.
Expected impact: Eliminated a non-core business unit, improved consolidated gross and EBITDA margins, and strengthened the overall quality of earnings.
