ICM broke ground on a multi-million-dollar research lab and pilot plant in St. Joseph, MO, and expanded its Colwich research facilities.

ICM began construction of a state-of-the-art research and development facility that includes a full-scale pilot plant. Eventually planned to staff more than 20 scientists, the facility had three researchers working onsite even before construction was finished. The company also completed a 1,600 sq. ft. expansion to its 6,400 sq. ft. research lab at ICM's Colwich headquarters.
