Partnerships

Three partnerships are on record, tiered core and minor.

• DuPontcoreStrategic or Co-development PartnerIn the 1970s, MPC worked in joint effort with DuPont and several major oil companies to provide a cost-effective solution to the growing need for secondary containment of underground fuel storage systems. The PetroGard™ family of flexible membrane liners evolved from this partnership.
• Major Oil Companies (unnamed)coreStrategic or Co-development PartnerMPC collaborated with several major oil companies in the early 1980s to develop secondary containment solutions for underground fuel storage systems, leading to the PetroGard™ product development.
• American AirlinesminorImplementation/ SI/ Consulting PartnerAmerican Airlines employed MPC to line the tunnels under tramways at O'Hare International Airport in Chicago using PetroGard™ VI material for waterproofing.
