It also reflects an updated mission of streamlining, innovating and growing through values that will govern our new company: serious about safety, people matter, we’re valuable to others, we do what we say, and together we win.”

Nexeo Solutions will divest its plastics distribution business, Nexeo Plastics, to an affiliate of One Rock Capital Partners LLC. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2019 and is subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
