Monument Team,

I am pleased to announce that effective Monday, May 11, 2020 Chris Holbrook joined Monument Chemical in Brandenburg, KY as Production Superintendent for Polychem and reporting directly to me.

In this role he will be responsible for managing the Polychem area activities by promoting a  high level of safety, product quality and manufacturing excellence.

Chris comes to Monument Chemical with diverse experience in chemical manufacturing; most recently as Operations Manager producing intermediate chemicals. Previously, he has held significant technical, engineering, and operational leadership positions with Ascend, Invista, and Dow Chemical.

Chris holds his BS Chemical Engineering from The Ohio State University and an MBA from State University of New York.  He is also a Six Sigma Black Belt.

Due to the recent efforts to limit as much contact with others as we possibly can, we will be having Chris do as much of his initial onboarding and introduction to Monument Chemical offsite electronically. Chris looks forward to getting onsite and meeting the Brandenburg team as soon as possible.

Please join me in welcoming Chris to Monument and please extend your usual cooperation and support.

Thank you,

Ken Babcock

Site Leader
