Southern States Chemical, Inc., a Dulany Industries Company, announces that its new ‘Wilbara’ sulfuric acid plant is operational as of Dec. 15, 2010 at 8:44 pm.

Located at 4620 Hwy 421 North in Wilmington, North Carolina, Wilbara solidifies SSC’s position as the premier industrial producer/supplier of Sulfuric Acid on the East Coast.

“The addition of the new Wilbara plant exemplifies Southern States Chemical’s commitment to our business, which is providing unsurpassed service, quality, and reliability to our customers. With this new plant, we are improving our environmental footprint while dramatically strengthening our overall supply capabilities,” reports Key Compton, the president of Southern States Chemical.  The Wilbara plant produces three times as much as SSC’s existing acid plant in Wilmington while dramatically reducing emissions.

“I wish to thank all of the contractors, associates, and particularly the various Dulany team members for a job well done!  The successful startup of the Wilbara facility represents a remarkable achievement for this company which was successful only through an extraordinary amount of teamwork and focus by all involved,” stated Reed Dulany, the president of Dulany Industries.
