Clinton, S.C.

On Wednesday, Nordson Industrial Coating Systems (ICS) announced an exciting development for Laurens County. The company is investing $30 million in a brand-new facility that’s expected to create 125 new jobs in various fields such as machining, production, engineering, and management.

The new facility will be located at 19375 Highway 72 E in Clinton, marking a significant expansion for Nordson ICS. “We are very excited to be part of South Carolina’s upstate manufacturing sector,” said David Titone, Vice President of Nordson ICS. “It has been a pleasure working with the state of South Carolina, Laurens County, and the City of Clinton on our new facility.”

About Nordson’s ICS Division

Founded in 1954, Nordson’s ICS division initially made a name for itself by producing and marketing airless spray equipment. Nowadays, their sophisticated equipment is crucial for the precise application and curing of powder coatings, liquid paint, ambient temperature adhesives and sealants. These coatings are essential in preventing corrosion across a wide range of metal products—from hub caps and dishwashers to soda caps and more.

A Warm Welcome from the City

“The City of Clinton would like to welcome Nordson to Clinton and the Clinton 26 Commerce Park,” said Randy Randall, Mayor of the City of Clinton. “We are thrilled for their commitment to our city and wish them much success with their new facility.”
