 PROFILE
Sterling Chemicals Holdings provides chemicals for products ranging from Styrofoam cups to hosiery. With plants in the US and Canada, the company makes petrochemicals, acrylic fibers, and pulp chemicals, which it sells primarily to chemical companies -- British Petroleum accounts for 12% of sales. Sterling's principal products include styrene (46% of sales) and pulp chemicals (20%). Its acrylic fiber operations produce textile and technical fibers used in the apparel, industrial, and auto industries. The company also licenses and supervises the construction of large-scale chlorine dioxide generators for the pulp and paper industries. Heavily in debt, Sterling filed for bankruptcy protection in 2001.
