Senator Bernie Moreno (R-Ohio) announced at a press conference that U.S. Medical Glove Co. will acquire the Pixelle Paper Mill in Chillicothe, Ohio. The facility, which has operated for more than two centuries, has been a major employer in the region.

“For over 200 years, the Pixelle Paper Mill has been a cornerstone of the community, employing generations of Ohioans,” said Senator Moreno. “U.S. Medical Glove Co.’s investment in Chillicothe will revitalize Ohio manufacturing and bring high-paying wages to families in Ross County that allow them to live with dignity. I am honored to fight for some of the hardest working people I have met!”

The company intends to convert the site into a manufacturing center for medical gloves. U.S. Medical Glove Co., established after the COVID-19 pandemic, aims to supply gloves and other personal protective equipment domestically.
