combined to form Hexion Specialty

acquired in late April.
Hexion Specialty Chemicals, which
will be headquartered in Columbus,
OH, had 2004 annual net sales of $4.1
billion. The company has approximately
7,000 employees and will rank
third among North American-based
specialty chemical firms. With 86
manufacturing and distribution sites
in 18 countries, the company’s major
product areas include formaldehyde,
epoxy and phenolic resins, molding
compounds, coating resins, acrylics,
alkyds and polyester resins. For more
