Relationships

Another banner news day in Bristol with a ribbon cutting ceremony for the latest Seaman Corporation expansion project in the Municipal Industrial Park.

The community celebrated the $7 million expansion project that included new state of-the-art coating equipment, mixing equipment, and weaving and knitting machinery for its high performance specialty fabrics.

Bristol was in competition with Ohio to land this latest investment which increases the capital footprint of Seaman locally and protects jobs that would have otherwise been lost to Ohio.

The company also expects to add positions to the Bristol plant as business ramps up with the newest equipment in the future.

As always, it took the good work of many to bring about this economic victory - coupled with a great corporate citizen like Seaman that understands the value of relationships and execution.
