Sumika Polymers North America (SPNA) is a 100% subsidiary of the Sumitomo Chemical Group located in North America. Our Corporate Office is located in Farmington Hills, Michigan and our Manufacturing Facility is located in Griffin, GA. "SPNA continues to meet new environmental challenges through the production and sale of polypropylene compounds. As materials evolve in line with a sustainability-oriented society, polypropylene materials, one of the most familiar plastics, are expected to contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions because they are recyclable both "materially" and "chemically" and are lighter than other plastics. Sumitomo Chemical and the Sumika Polymer Group are also working to develop products that can make a significant contribution to this goal. To repeat, we are a corporate organization, but at the same time we want to be an organization where everyone can easily take on challenges like a family, and where we can grow together with everyone, not just ourselves.”
