Fluor’s Chemical expansion project for Milliken is underway

Fluor Corporation announced today that its engineering, procurement and construction project for Milliken & Company’s chemical plant expansion at its Allen Plant site in Blacksburg, South Carolina is  underway.

“We are delighted to be a partner with Milliken, a client with whom we  have a unique and long-term legacy beginning with Charlie Daniel and  Roger Milliken, to deliver this important project,” said Juan  G. Hernandez, president of Fluor’s Life Sciences & Advanced  Manufacturing business line. “Fluor will leverage its integrated  solutions portfolio and local project execution capabilities to design  and construct the facility which will have significant positive impact  on the state.”

The new chemicals facility will produce Milliken’s proprietary specialty  chemicals used in a wide range of industries including food, cosmetics,  office supplies and storage products. The project scope includes a new  process manufacturing plant, utilities, warehouse and tank farm adjacent  to Milliken’s existing operations.

Fluor’s Greenville, South Carolina office is leading the project with  the team that performed the preparatory engineering work along with  Fluor’s global chemicals experts. The project team will work closely  with Milliken’s process engineers as the plant will leverage design and  experience from previous expansions and improvements while incorporating  numerous advancements.
