ZL Chemicals Ltd. (ZL) today announced that its newly constructed Houston blending facility has successfully completed its trial production stage and is officially operating at full capacity. This new facility provides ZL with the necessary resources to deliver products to the surrounding region faster and more economically. In addition, both the Midland and Houston blending facilities will triple the Company’s current liquid friction reducer production throughout the U.S.
This Houston facility solidifies ZL’s commitment to the U.S. market through significant investments in the creation of local jobs and the integration of American made elements and services into ZL’s products at the Company’s two high volume blending facilities. ZL’s Midland facility will continue its operation, ensuring fast and secure delivery to all U.S. customers.
“Over the past two years that we have operated in the U.S., like many companies, we have faced significant challenges due COVID-19 and inclement weather conditions,” said Paul Lord “Despite these obstacles, we are proud to have delivered our products 100% on time to all of our customers. We look forward to achieving further growth in the U.S. and believe a strong future lies ahead for our new Houston facility as we continue to deliver the highest quality products to our growing customer base.”
