“Hexion / Momentive, a resin manufacturer, invested in the expansion of its facilities in Parana in order to meet the growing needs of the wood panel industry, the main consumer of its products. The resins produced by the company are used to agglomerate the fibers, particles and wood panels that make up MDF, MDP, OSB and plywood. According to Cicero Luiz Ferreira da Silva, president of Momentive in Brazil and vice president for Latin America, the domestic demand for wood plates has increased. “The furniture and construction industries grew a lot due to the large expansion of the middle class and government programs such as Minha Casa Minha Vida and Construcard card”. In addition to the Curitiba unit, Momentive has factories in Montenegro (Rio Grande do Sul), Paulinia (São Paulo), Tacuarembó (Uruguay) and Cali (Colombia). Among its clients are companies such as Duratex, Fibraplac, Arauco, Berneck and Sudati, most with plants in Parana. Source: Gazeta do Povo July/14
