A HUNDRED YEARS OF SULFUR AT FREEPORT

SGeorgia Gulf Sulfur · From the PlantinSHARE ON LINKEDIN

Hans Stauffer lost his first sulfur plant to the San Francisco earthquake. The plant he built at Freeport, Texas in 1916 was designed so that could never happen again. It is still running.

The thirteen acre site, formerly Stauffer Chemical Company, has produced processed sulfur continuously since 1916. Over one million tons have gone out the gate, into tires, phosphate, paper, and half the industries on the Gulf Coast.

Today S.F. Sulfur Corporation runs the plant with more than 40,000 square feet of covered warehousing, the deepest finished inventory in the family. Tire®, Triangle®, and Arrow Roll® all ship from Freeport.

A hundred years is not a slogan. It is a maintenance schedule kept a hundred times over.
