Arclin: Engineered Materials Company Innovates from Canadian Home Base

With annual sales of $600 million and 550 employees and four locations (and 13 locations throughout the Americas), Arclin is a showcase of Canadian-based innovation.

“Arclin is committed to being a technology leader in bonding and surfacing solutions as well as natural resources applications with a special focus on sustainable products”, says Kevin Griffin, Director of Marketing and Communications of Arclin.

Arclin’s proprietary Green Sigma™ applies Six Sigma® quality assurance principles to sustainability practices and contributes another layer of performance improvement as the company lessens its environmental footprint while improving product performance. For example, the company has been able to reduce annual volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions by 70% at its Portland, Oregon location – a proactive approach to lessening environmental impact that extends to all 13 of its locations.

Known for its state-of-the-art product development and application labs, Arclin partners with its customers to provide market-specific innovations in engineered materials. Much of that innovation is centred at Arclin headquarters in Mississauga, Ontario, as well as locations in Kamloops, British Columbia; North Bay, Ontario; and Ste-Thérèse, Quebec.

Arclin [www.arclin.com] is another example of Canadian leadership and excellence the global business world continues to count on.
