WEBBERVILLE, Mich. — Applegate Insulation, a manufacturer of hydromulch and erosion control products, announces the acquisition of the hydromulch business of Rodney, Ontario-based IECS.
The plant will operate as Applegate Canada, ULC and marks the first time the Webberville, Michigan-based manufacturer of eco-friendly erosion control products will have production capabilities inside of Canada.
