Former Ashland CFO Joins Lehigh Technologies Board

| February 12, 2014

Lamar ChambersLehigh Technologies, a leading sustainable materials company, has announced that Lamar Chambers, former senior vice president and chief financial officer at Ashland Inc., a leading specialty chemical company with more than $8 billion in revenue, has been elected to Lehigh’s board of directors.

Chambers led Ashland’s financial organization during a period defined by multiple high-profile acquisitions and significant change in the structure of the global chemical industry.

“Customers of the specialty chemicals industry are trying to balance growth and margin improvement with the consumer expectation that their product lines become more sustainable over time,” said Chambers. “As a result, markets such as tires, construction materials and plastics are seeking alternative raw materials that are lower in cost and more sustainable than today’s petroleum-based feedstocks.

“Lehigh’s micronized rubber powder (MRP) is an excellent solution for this problem, and I look forward to using my background and experience to support Lehigh as it continues to grow and expand its geographic presence”.

Lehigh Technologies is a leading sustainable materials company that is transforming end-of-life tire and post-industrial rubber into highly engineered, sustainable powders called Micronized Rubber Powder (MRP) that are being used in a wide range of consumer and industrial applications.
