Halstab, a division of Hammond Group Inc., is located in Hammond, Indiana, just 20 miles east of downtown Chicago. Hammond Group Inc. founded the Halstab division in 1971 to provide a domestic source of high quality heat stabilizers for the wire and cable industry.
The division has since grown well beyond it's roots, and is one of the largest suppliers of mixed metal liquid and powder stabilizers for PVC, organo-tin stabilizers for both flexible and rigid vinyl applications, and is the world's leading supplier of overbased carbonated metal carboxylates used as building blocks for making mixed metal liquid stabilizers. Halstab has grown by internal development and external acquisition. It purchased the Anzon heat stabilizer business from Cookson PLC in 1995 and moved production form Philadelphia to Hammond soon after. In 2003 it purchased OM Group's Plastic Additives Division and
combined its strong liquid product line with its already strong powder position. These two acquisitions propelled the company to a leading supply position worldwide.
Halstab operates manufacturing facilities in Hammond, Indiana and Franklin Pennsylvania while offering its products for sale throughout the world. Halstab's strategic strengths are its unique patented position in mixed metal carboxylates, its dedication to customer centered new product development, and its concentration on environmentally sound manufacturing processes. Halstab is known for operating world class manufacturing facilities and is proud to always have them open for inspection by their customers.
Another strategic advantage for Halstab is it's long history of family ownership. Hammond Group Inc. was founded in 1930 and has traditionally concentrated on its few business and emphasized manufacturing excellence. As with many family owned and operated companies, it has developed a culture of dedicated associates who are committed to fulfilling customers expectations in a way that builds a loyal customer base; many of Hammond Group's customers have been supplied by Hammond for over 70 years.
The Halstab division is known not only for its excellent manufacturing facilities, but also for its new product innovation. It is on the leading edge of supplying environmentally friendly products with low volatile organic compounds that contain no heavy metals. It is dedicated to providing the products of the future to its customers. Halstab sells its products directly, as well as through a world-wide network of agents and distributors.
