John Giles came to the North Carolina mountains in 1950 to mine the region`s olivine deposits for magnesium. But it didn`t take the Michigan transplant long to learn that drawing magnesium from olivine was too expensive to be commercially viable in the post-World War II economy. In a move that would come to define the company`s character, John Giles developed a new plan. He bought magnesium oxide from seawater extraction plants in Florida, converted it to magnesium sulfate and sold it to the tanneries that ringed his new hometown. Soon the company was thriving. As more industry moved to the South, and the region grew, so did Giles. Giles opened up a repackaging plant in Waynesville in 2003, which packs Epsom Salt into cartons, pouches, jugs and jars and services the retail Epsom salt market. Repack has become a key part of our business. In 2007, Giles merged with Premier Magnesia, LLC, which mines Magnesium Oxide (MgO) in Nevada and has long supplied Giles with this vital raw material. Today, Giles is backward integrated in MgO, ensuring supply of this important product. In 2013, Giles increased our Magnesium Sulfate Crystal production capacity by 33%, ensuring we`ll be able to supply customers during seasonal high-demand. Although the ownership of Giles has changed, finding innovative solutions to customers` challenges remains our hallmark. Our production capacity may make us the largest magnesium sulfate manufacturer in North America, but our can-do attitude keeps us resourceful and forward thinking. When a customer runs into a road block, we find a way around it, just as John Giles did so many years ago.
Today’s NewMarket Corporation is a far cry from its beginnings in 1887 as the Albemarle Paper Manufacturing Company. As the world has evolved, so have we. And now we’re recognized worldwide as the well-balanced holding company for some of the most respected and successful companies within the petroleum additives industry. Much of our success and expansion over the last century is owed to adding new industry-leading solutions and growing our base of customers. But another large part has come from strategic acquisitions. Against the background of a changing global economy, this combination has helped us gain a worldwide reputation for delivering value to our customers and equity to our shareholders. Today, NewMarket Corporation provides strategic guidance and insight for our family of companies. By leveraging our centralized resources, our family of companies are able to respond quickly to local market conditions and specific customer needs. While our business has certainly evolved since we manufactured paper products over a century ago, the way we operate remains unchanged. Everyone we deal with -- employees, customers, suppliers, shareholders, and communities – can feel confident that NewMarket and its people act with honesty, integrity, and fairness.
