Michelman wins 2014 Manny Award for New Product Development and Innovation

Michelman was a winner at the 2014 Manny Awards, held June 18, 2014, in Cincinnati, Ohio and sponsored by Cincy Magazine. John Homoelle, Michelman’s director of new technology and regulatory affairs, accepted the award in the New Product Development and Innovation category.

The award was based on Michelman’s introduction of a family of water-based products for use in food packaging and composite parts manufacturing applications. Using technology licensed from Dow Chemical, Michelman has developed and introduced a series of new products using water-based polymers that are more environmentally friendly, non-flammable, and that can be applied in smaller, more precise amounts.

Michelman is a global developer of water-based barrier and functional coatings for flexible film packaging, paperboard, and corrugated cartons; and water-based surface modifiers, additives and polymers for numerous industries including wood and floor care, industrial coatings, inks, fibers, composites, and construction products. Michelman serves its multinational and regional customers with production facilities in the U.S., Europe and Singapore, and a worldwide network of highly trained field technical support personnel.
