Cabot has completed its acquisition of Mexico Carbon Manufacturing (MXCB) from Bridgestone, following the announcement of a definitive agreement in August and the receipt of required regulatory approvals.
Cabot has long supplied Bridgestone with reinforcing carbon products, and this acquisition further strengthens the partnership between the two companies. The acquisition also expands Cabot’s global manufacturing footprint and reinforces its position as a provider of reinforcing carbons. Acquiring MXCB, which is strategically located near Cabot’s existing facility in Altamira, Mexico, not only enhances Cabot’s production capacity and operational flexibility but also offers the capability to manufacture a broader range of reinforcing carbon products.
