At a time when domestic manufacturing is under renewed attention, the Muskegon pigments plant operated by Sun Chemical quietly produces colors that reach far beyond Michigan. “We do yellow for the Hewlett Packard printer cartridges,” said union president John Nichols, highlighting the facility’s role in supplying pigment for global printing technology. “We make the red for cosmetics,” he added, underscoring the plant’s reach into everyday consumer products. From the bright yellow found in ink cartridges used in homes and offices to the rich red hues blended into makeup products, the Muskegon workforce produces specialized pigments that serve multiple industries, reinforcing the plant’s importance as a rare and versatile U.S.-based color manufacturer.
