INOLEX has been steadily ramping up its sales force with strategic new hires in several key global beauty care markets. With its new flagship manufacturing plant in Charlotte, North Carolina in the final phase of development, the bolstering of the company’s core sales team adds to the existing growth momentum surrounding the organization.

 
“Building an experienced team that is technically savvy and has a partnership mindset with our customers is fundamental,” said Art Knox, VP Global Head of Sales. “We have a stand-out product portfolio that delivers performance, innovation, and an increased focus on sustainable and bio-based materials. We have world-class production capabilities culminating in Charlotte. These three pillars combined are enabling INOLEX to showcase our leadership in the beauty care market,” said Knox.
 
Following the announcement of its US manufacturing expansion last November, INOLEX has remained on target to fully transition its manufacturing operations to Charlotte, NC by the fourth quarter 2019. In addition to fulfilling immediate manufacturing needs, the 150,000 square foot site in Charlotte offers the opportunity for future expansion of capacity and scope. The space includes modernized production and warehousing, and multi-purpose customizable space.
