CLEVELAND, Oct. 12, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- PolyOne Corporation (NYSE: POL) today announced that it expects to begin local production of specialty engineered materials at its existing facility in Pune, India in January 2017. The new capability enables polyone to more broadly support customers and increase their speed to market through PolyOne's expansive portfolio of high-performance solutions and services.

Initial production will include specialty engineered polymer materials used in high performance applications that have the need for flame retardant properties, high strength and durability, stiffness, chemical resistance, or weatherability. In addition, polyone has hired sales and technical resources based in 印度 with expertise in specialty engineered materials to increase speed to market and collaborate with in-country customers.

polyone opened a new facility in 浦那 in 2014 initially focused on the production of colorant and additives to serve end markets such as transportation, electronics & electrical, healthcare, wire & cable, and packaging.  Specialty engineered materials manufacturing capability is currently being installed within the facility, and production trials begin later this year.

"polyone continues to build upon our strong reputation in 印度 for collaborating and innovating with our local and multi-national customers," said Craig Nikrant, president, Specialty Engineered Materials, polyone.
