LSI Rebrands as Arxada

Specialty chemicals company LSI has rebranded as Arxada, effective Oct. 21. The new name follows the firm’s recent launch as an independent business, after the completion of Lonza Group’s sale of Lonza Specialty Ingredients.

The re-brand reflects the company’s passion for delivering high performance and realizing potential, both for its customers and within its own operations.

The name Arxada derives from arx and arcis, the Latin words for citadel and fortress. In the same way a citadel acts as a protector, Arxada provides solutions that strengthen the performance of its customers and their products, and help protect people, places and the planet.

DURING the American Wood Protection Association’s annual meeting in Nashville, president Jim Healey presented Tank Fab Inc. owner Tom Lippincott (right) with the AWPA Award of Merit for his contributions to the wood preservation industry. His innovations included reducing the time it takes to treat wood within the treating cylinder, and bulk piling wood packs.
