The AOC unit of The Alpha Corporation is a global supplier of resins, gel-coats, colorants and additives for the composites and cast polymer industries. AOC has 12 facilities located in nine countries throughout North America, Europe and the Asia-Pacific region.
The new world headquarters for The Alpha Corporation and AOC consolidates management functions under one roof for improved efficiencies and response. All research, development and technical support functions are now consolidated in the building which formerly housed parts of both management and technology.
The building has been certified under the Leadership in Energy and Environment Design (LEED) system of the US Green Building Council.
“The Alpha Corporation and AOC are proud to celebrate this milestone as a business in Western Tennessee,” says Randy Weghorst, Chairman and CEO. “For 50 years, we have provided jobs, paid taxes and encouraged community participation for the benefit of the Greater Memphis area. Many of our employees volunteer time and financially support local universities, schools, places of worship, and charitable organisations. We look forward to being a corporate citizen of this region for many more years to come.”
