WhiteRock Pigments locating $179 million plant here, creating 124 jobs
An aerial of the former Alcoa plant that will be the home of WhiteRock Pigments.
Last Thursday a new industry announced that it would be spending $179 million to locate in Hancock County, creating 124 new jobs.
Whiterock Pigments, Inc., out of Cleveland, Ohio, will purchase the vacant former Alcoa building and convert it to produce a product that the company is being hush-hush about.
“That’s really what we’re trying to low-key,” Whiterock CEO Bob Meyer said Tuesday.
He would only say that it will be a chemical process, the details of which he’s trying to keep from his competitors.
