- Description: It doesn't take an old sweet song to tell you what Georgia Gulf Corporation does. The company makes chlorovinyls and aromatics used by the construction and housing, plastics, fibers, pulp and paper, pharmaceutical, and consumer industries. Its primary chlorovinyl products (about 80% of sales) are PVC (polyvinyl chloride) compounds and resins and caustic soda; this segment also makes vinyl chloride monomer, used by Georgia Gulf to manufacture PVC resins. Aromatics include phenol (sold to makers of engineered plastics), acetone (sold to makers of acrylic resins), and cumene (used by the company to make phenol and acetone). More than half of Georgia Gulf's sales are to the housing and construction market.
