Novomer, Inc., a chemicals company, has announced the relocation of its headquarters to One Bowdoin Square in Boston on July 17. The new office – designed to meet the expanded demands of the company’s growing bio-based chemicals business – will be in the heart of Boston, less than 20 miles from the current Waltham location.

The larger office space will provide room to grow and more space for collaboration. In addition to corporate offices, the new space will house business development and global project management activities, said Jim Mahoney, CEO of Novomer. “This move is about access,” explained Mahoney. “Greater access to public transportation for our employees and the closer location to Boston Logan International Airport will make it more convenient for partners, customers, and vendors to visit Novomer headquarters.”

Novomer is commercializing a family of competitively priced bio-based chemicals and high-performance polymers from ethanol and low-cost carbon monoxide. With its proprietary catalyst and process technology, Novomer enables these renewable feedstocks to be cost competitively transformed into chemical building blocks for a wide variety of industrial products and applications.

Effective July 17, the new address of Novomer’s headquarters will be One Bowdoin Square, Suite 300, Boston, MA, 02114. The company’s main phone number and email address will remain the same (781-419-9860, [email protected]).
