McGrath & Associates has begun design/build work to convert 85,000 square feet of warehouse space at the PolyAd Services facility in Earth City, Missouri, into a combined $8.4 millino production, R&D lab, headquarters and conference center for ALTANA’s BYK North America Plastics team.
PolyAd Services, a manufacturer of plastics additives, was acquired last year by the German specialty chemicals company BYK.
The construction project is scheduled for completion in July of this year.
The new space will accommodate PolyAd R&D labs and offices, Addcomp production, a shared plastics laboratory, a seminar room and smaller conference rooms.
