SusMaTech, a business seeking to replace nonrenewable specialty chemicals with green products, opened its first synthetic laboratory inside the Spartanburg Community College Downtown Campus’ Spark Space.
“We are thrilled to unveil our first R&D laboratory here in downtown Spartanburg,” said Russell Stapleton, owner of SusMaTech. “This unique space is an ideal location to develop new technologies, and the people needed for the success of SusMaTech. We aim to build upon the strong materials science and manufacturing base that already exists here in Spartanburg by injecting new technologies and developing greener options for our customers.”
The chemical-materials-development facility will work to drive innovation and accelerate the company’s entry into the sustainable-specialty-chemicals market. The laboratory will also work to develop new products and processes and collaborate with customers and academic institutions.
