J.M. Huber Corporation provides a broad range
of industries with innovative products and services in three sectors: Engineered
Materials, Natural Resources and Technology-Based Services.
Engineered Materials:
Driving innovation with specialty products.
The
Engineered Materials Sector consists of Huber Engineered Woods (HEW), Huber Engineered Materials
(HEM) and CP Kelco. These
businesses provide value-added specialty products that help improve the
performance of consumer and industrial products.
CP Kelco
is a leading global producer of
specialty hydrocolloids with more than 2,000 customers in over 100 countries,
and facilities in North America, Europe, Asia and Latin America. With an
extensive range of specialty hydrocolloid solutions, CP Kelco serves a wide
variety of applications, including food, pharmaceutical, oral care, personal
care, household and consumer, specialty industrial and oil field drilling. CP
Kelco has leading positions in pectin, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC)
and refined carrageenan, and is one of the world's largest producers of xanthan
gum, gellan gum, welan gum and
diutan. CP Kelco was acquired by J.M. Huber Corporation in September 2004 and in
2005 combined with Huber’s Noviant business (acquired in 2001).
Huber Engineered Materials
develops engineered specialty ingredients
that enhance the performance, appeal and processing of a broad range of products
used in industrial, paper and consumer-based applications. HEM's expertise in
inorganic powders include specialty silica and silicates (includes food and USP,
or U.S. Pharmacopeia, grades), alumina trihydrate, magnesium hydroxide, barium sulfate and calcium carbonate (includes food and USP grades).
Innovative materials enhance hundreds of products—from cosmetics to countertops,
from toothpaste to industrial coatings for bridges and ships, from paper
coatings to pharmaceutical excipients.
Huber Engineered Woods LLC is a recognized leader in creating specialty wood composites for residential construction and industrial applications. HEW is focused on providing high quality, branded products including AdvanTech® flooring, sheathing and rimboard; ZIP System wall® sheathing and ZIP System roof™ sheathing; and several specialty original equipment manufacturing (OEM) products for millwork and transportation industries. HEW products provide innovative solutions and enhancements through better performance, weatherability and ease of installation.
Natural Resources:
Using resources efficiently and responsibly.
Huber’s
Natural Resources Sector includes two areas of business: Energy and Timber. The sector’s holdings span more
than 600 thousand acres across the U.S. Huber has oil and gas properties
throughout the west and southwest and timberlands in Maine, Oklahoma and the
southeast.
Energy,
which includes Huber’s oil & gas business, develops and operates gas properties in the Powder River Basin of Wyoming while seeking to grow our business into other gas basins in North America.
Timber manages Huber’s forest acreage as
well as timberlands for third parties. The business uses sophisticated forest
modeling for its efforts in forest regeneration and sustained yield harvesting.
Wherever
Huber operates, its commitment to the environment follows. Both Energy and
Timber practice responsible environmental stewardship by participating in a wide
range of initiatives that reflect Huber’s respect for the earth’s resources.
Technology-Based Services:
Building on experience to expand into service businesses.
From timber
management to
investment management, Huber draws on experience from its own
operations to offer Technology-Based Services to customers. These service
businesses are important to Huber as they reduce capital intensity across the
company’s portfolio.

is a market leading provider
of specialized working capital solutions, providing consulting, advisory and
technology services to a diverse range of multi-national clients. Demica works
with the world's leading investment banks, private equity sponsors and global

Huber Resources Corp.
maximizes the yield from forests
by applying advanced technology, including soil typing and biological growth
models. The business also operates a log-optimizing facility in Millinocket, ME,
which uses scanning technology to maximize the value of sawlogs.

a stronger, more diversified organization. |
