Omya is leading global producer of industrial minerals, mainly fillers and pigments derived from calcium carbonate and dolomite. The company’s major markets are the paper, plastics, paint/coatings/adhesives industries as well as construction, environment, agriculture, food and pharmaceutical industries.

Omya’s facility in Vermont, which employs approximately 200 people, is the largest Omya processing plant in North and South America. This operation quarries marble, which then is ground, milled, and purified to produce a finely ground calcium carbonate.

Omya has shown its commitment here in Vermont by investing in its operations, employees and local communities. Over the last several years, Omya has invested in several capital projects to maintain its state-of-the-art production facility as well as enhance environmental protection.

One of Omya’s greatest strengths is the diversity of its workforce, with men and women of many nationalities and backgrounds working together and sharing common objectives. The company provides a high performance workplace with opportunities for advancement to highly talented, innovative and dedicated employees.

Community involvement is an important part of Omya’s culture. Omya employees give back in a variety of ways by: volunteering to pick up roadside trash; providing children’s activities at community events; coordinating blood drives and food drives; involvement with schools; participating on local boards; and coaching youth sports.

Omya will continue to build and improve its business here in Vermont.
