The (PCE) is expanding its facility in Charlotte, North Carolina by 12,000 square feet and is creating a “nesting strategy” to help European companies enter the U.S. market.

Companies will also have access to PCE’s lab for their equipment, along with support services and a conference room.

The PCE assists companies in the polymer and plastics industry with research and development, toll compounding, injection molding and material testing.
