HOUSTON (ICIS)--Styrolution's 455,000 tonne/year plant in Sarnia, Ontario was back up and running, in line with last week’s expectations, a company source said on Friday.

The Sarnia plant has been running prime product since the beginning of the week, the source said.

The plant went down in mid-September because of unplanned mechanical issues.

A company spokesperson could not be reached for comment.

The company restarted its 485,000 tonne/year Texas City plant, which remains online, to cover production lost from Sarnia.
