Turner Expands Partnership with Eastman Chemical

This summer, Turner Industries expanded its operational presence at two of Eastman’s largest manufacturing sites in North America: Longview, Texas, and Kingsport, Tennessee.

The Kingsport facility holds special significance as both Eastman’s largest manufacturing site and worldwide headquarters. Turner also continues to maintain its strong presence at Eastman’s facilities in Pace, Florida, and St. Gabriel, Louisiana. In Kingsport and Longview, Turner hosted “welcome nights” to celebrate the many employees joining the Turner team at these facilities.

MAKING THE MOVE: This expanded partnership with Eastman has also attracted dedicated Turner employees who recognize the significance of this opportunity. Many have made the considerable decision to relocate their families to be part of something special.

Take Zackary Saucier, for example: a project controls manager with 8 years of Turner experience. Saucier had no plans to leave Lake Charles, Louisiana, but when the Eastman opportunity arose, he didn’t hesitate—he jumped at the chance to relocate to Kingsport, Tennessee over the summer. 

My family and I are excited about this new adventure and the chance to contribute to something big,” Saucier said. “Tennessee has already started to feel like home, and the people here are so friendly.
