The facility will become part of Albemarle's fine chemicals division, a provider of CGMP and non-GMP custom chemical manufacturing services, ingredients, and intermediates to the pharmaceutical industry.
DSM had announced in December 2005 its decision to close or divest the South Haven site, which is focused on the production of generic active pharmaceutical ingredients.
