Tiger-Sul Products upgrades Alabama facility

Atmore, Ala.-H.J. Baker & Bro. Inc. announced several upgrades to its Tiger-Sul Products sulfur pastille fertilizer facility in Atmore, Ala., including relocating the manufacturing processes for Tiger 90 CR® sulfur and Tiger Micronutrient® fertilizers to a climate-controlled environment to minimize potential variants and increase stability. “The modifications and design features that we are implementing will allow us to continue to produce the high quality Tiger-Sul line of products,” said Drew Taylor, Tiger-Sul Products Atmore general manager. “The modifications will also allow for future expansion of the facility once production capacity is outgrown.” The Atmore production facility offers international access for the company’s sulfur fertilizer products through the Mobile, Ala., port. In the last year, the company has begun construction of a new facility at its existing Stockton, Calif., location; upgraded the blending system at its Calgary, Alberta, facility; and licensed its technology to Chemical Initiatives in Johannesburg, South Africa, for production of the Tiger-Sul line of products for the African continent. “We are pleased that global demand for Tiger 90 CR® sulfur and Tiger Micronutrients® fertilizers continues to grow,” said H.J. Baker & Bro. CEO Chris Smith.
