Welcome to ITW POLYSPEC THIOKOL

Experience. Integrity. Responsiveness. These are words we take seriously here at POLYSPEC. Our company was founded on the principle of being attentive to customer needs. This is the basis for our existence and the reason for our success.

Today POLYSPECis a leading manufacturer of polymer coatings, linings, flooring and sealants for construction and corrosion protection in industrial, institutional, commercial and marine markets.

We differentiate ourselves in the marketplace by providing rigorous, consistent product quality, unparalleled customer service and technical support, and product breadth and availability. Our goal is simply to provide the most innovative solutions in the industry.

ITW POLYSPEC THIOKOL History

From our formation in 1992, POLYSPEC has evolved from a local supplier of coatings and linings to a thriving entity with an international presence in diverse markets. Our growth has been enhanced by the acquisitions of the THIOKOL Formulated Products and Selby Marine Decking Products businesses.

Further technical developments have materialized from research contracts under the federal government’s SBIR program and cooperative efforts in private industry. All of this has combined to help POLYSPEC emerge as a recognized leader in the polymer construction technology industry.

ITW POLYSPEC THIOKOL Community Involvement

The Foundation contributes financial support to not-for-profit organizations
through two major giving programs: a direct-giving program and a three-for-one
matching gift program for employees. ITW's Direct Giving program funds 100 groups in the communities in which we're located.

Our grants support organizations that focus on education, the arts, health and human services, social welfare, housing, environmental and youth issues. For 2008, the Foundation contributed more than $14 million to fund community initiatives. In 2008, ITW increased the donation limit for its matching gift program from $2,000 to $5,000, for a total of $15,000 per individual - enabling even greater benefits for our people and their communities. These dollars aid the diverse organizations that our employees choose to support financially.

United Way is ITW POLYSPEC THIOKOL's charitable organization of choice. We believe our alliance with United Way enables our dollars to reach farther and have the greatest impact possible. The monies raised through employee contributions were distributed to 305 local United Way chapters throughout the United States and Canada. In 2006, employee pledges from active employees and retirees, plus $1-for-$1 Foundation match grants, totaled approximately $4.1 million.
