Orion Engineered Carbons S.A. (NYSE: OEC), a leading global
supplier of specialty and high-performance carbon black, announced
its intent to make a sizable donation to Hutchinson County United
Way to support local residents impacted by Winter Storm Uri. Orion
operates a carbon black manufacturing facility in Hutchinson
County’s largest city Borger, Texas and employs 70 area
residents.
“We have had the privilege of being a part of the Hutchinson
County community for the past 93 years,” said Corning Painter, CEO

through this difficult time, and we are honored to support the
local community in partnership with the United Way.”
The donation to Hutchinson County United Way will help fund
