Over the past few years, SOPREMA Canada has sought to improve its product lines and extend its expertise to areas other than waterproofing, particularly by producing high-performance energy-saving, low-environmental impact insulation. With its polyisocyanurate manufacturing plant in Drummondville, the recent acquisition of Benolec, a cellulosic product manufacturer, and the construction of an extruded polystyrene plant in Sherbrooke, SOPREMA has demonstrated its willingness to offer a wide variety of insulation products that are suitable for any type of application.
“SOPREMA is experiencing remarkable growth thanks to these initiatives to become a leader in insulation. We like to do things differently and it bears fruit!” said Richard Voyer, Vice President and Chief Executive Officer, SOPREMA North America.
With this new plant, which will open in 2018 on Robert-Boyd Street, about 50 jobs will be created within the next three years.
