With the completion of its latest acquisition, Cortec® Biotechnology Campus, Cortec® Corporation and its subsidiaries are the world's largest producer of VPCI, Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitor (VpCI®), and Migratory Corrosion Inhibitor (MCI®).
This new Campus at 2420 Trailmate Drive, Sarasota, Florida USA, is located in the modern industrial park of Parkland Centre near the Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport. It is the most state-of-the-art research facility, with 36,000 square feet (3,600 square meters) of office, manufacturing, warehouse, and two laboratory areas under one roof.
Cortec® Biotechnology Campus will be equipped with cutting edge equipment for the manufacturing of Cortec's Nano-VpCI® coatings and Bionetix's bioremediation and cleaning products. Part of the warehouse will be designated for warehousing and shipping of Cortec® products that are deemed "freezable" and cannot be shipped out of their Minnesota or Wisconsin plants during the winter months. With operations in over 100 countries on five continents, Cortec® knows their warm climate partners will be very happy about this. This complex will also house two modern laboratories for biotechnology and marine corrosion research as well as sales and customer support offices for the Southeastern US, Caribbean, and Central and South Americas. With the proximity of the shipping ports in Tampa and Miami, and the Sarasota and Tampa international airports, this Florida location is attractive for Cortec® as it brings them closer to their customer base.
