NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCBD) – With exactly one month left until the First in the South Primary, presidential hopeful, Nikki Haley traveled back to her home state for a rally in North Charleston.

“And so, we were very excited last night because we saw that we had gone up 25 points in a month and we were thrilled. So, we got out there and we did our thing and we said what we had to say and then Donald Trump got out there and just threw a temper tantrum,” Haley told the crowd at the Convention Center.

Haley, who previously served as the Governor of South Carolina, called out her opponent former President Donald Trump after his recent victories in Iowa and New Hampshire.

“He was insulting, he was doing what he does, but I know that’s what he does when he’s insecure. I know that’s what he does when he is threatened and he should feel threatened, without a doubt,” Haley said, followed by an eruption of cheers.

The losses aren’t keeping Haley, nor those who came out on Wednesday, from showing their confidence in her path to the White House.

“I think she’s amazing and I think that she has what it takes to bring America back together and not keep us so divided,” said Jessica Adkins of Edisto Island.

Pat Abrahamson, who travelled from Summerville, had similar opinions toward Haley.

“I am all in, 100% behind this woman,” Abrahamson said.

Between the signs, shirts, and buttons, pride for Haley was on full display. Ed Ames, a dedicated supporter, volunteered his time to help set up the event.

“Nikki Haley is a person who, when she says something that she’s going to do, you can be rest assured that she’s going to do it and that she has a proven track record with that up in Columbia,” Ames told News 2.

Not everyone who showed up was pro-Haley. A group of people backing former President Trump gathered outside.

“I love President Trump because he’s the only politician that ever worked for the American people. He put America first,” said Miguel J. Munoz.

Back inside, Haley told the crowd she raised $1 million since her speech on Tuesday night. She encouraged voters to keep the momentum going.

“I promise you; I will do exactly what I did for you when I was Governor of South Carolina and I will spend every single day trying to make you proud,” Haley vowed.

Her next stops on the campaign trail include Mauldin, SC and Conway, SC this weekend.

SHL Medical, a Switzerland-based provider of advanced drug delivery solutions, which is building a $150 million facility in North Charleston, has acquired Superior Tooling Inc., a Wake Forest, North Carolina-based manufacturer of plastic injection molds.

With two new manufacturing sites underway in North Charleston, and Zug, Switzerland, complementing the existing facilities in Taiwan, SHL addresses the growing demand in the autoinjector market, according to a news release.

Superior Tooling will support SHL’s strategic manufacturing operations across the Southeast, especially strengthening its vertical capabilities for the new site in North Charleston, while solidifying its local presence, the release stated.

This expansion of strengths underlines SHL’s global strategy, emphasizing one of its distinctive features — full in-house manufacturing — and positions tooling as one of SHL’s core competencies just a few hours from the new manufacturing site in South Carolina, where SHL plans to invest over $150 million and employ around 165 Charleston-area residents, the release stated.

“The demand for our autoinjectors, including treatment areas such as diabetes and weight management, is growing rapidly,” Ulrich Faessler, chairman and CEO of SHL Medical, said in the release. “Through continuous advancements and dedication, we deliver on our strategic vision to uphold our position as market leaders. This acquisition marks a significant milestone in our journey towards globalizing our operations to better serve our customer base. We are happy to welcome Superior Tooling into the SHL family.”

Expanding tooling capabilities globally

The acquisition of Superior Tooling not only supports the tooling needs of SHL’s in-house manufacturing but also its strategy to deliver the highest quality tools to customers across industries, according to the release. The company will work closely with SHL’s existing tooling departments to develop new solutions for its global customer base.

“This marks a significant step forward for our potential and growth trajectory. We take great pride in having our capabilities recognized by a global player, and eagerly look forward to maximizing them as integral members of SHL Medical,” said Robbie Earnhardt, president of Superior Tooling. “I am confident that the synergies between our capabilities and SHL’s established tooling expertise will prove highly advantageous for both our existing and new customers”, expresses Robbie Earnhardt, President of Superior Tooling.

A large employer in North Charleston will close this summer.

WestRock Co. will permanently cease operating its paper mill in North Charleston on Aug. 31, according to a news release from the company.

The North Charleston mill produces containerboard, uncoated kraft paper (KraftPak), and unbleached saturating kraft paper (DuraSorb), with a combined annual capacity of 550,000 tons, according to the news release.

WestRock is committed to improving its return on invested capital as well as maximizing the performance of its assets, the release stated. The combination of high operating costs and the need for significant capital investment were the determining factors in the decision to cease operations at the mill.

“WestRock and its predecessor companies have had a long history in the region operating the North Charleston mill, and the contributions of the team members over the years have been greatly appreciated,” said WestRock CEO David B. Sewell in the release. “The decision to close a facility and impact the lives of our team members is never easy, and we are committed to assisting our North Charleston team with exploring roles at other WestRock locations and outplacement assistance.”

Containerboard and uncoated kraft currently produced at the mill will be manufactured at other WestRock facilities, the release stated. The company intends to exit the unbleached saturating kraft paper business when the mill shutdown is completed.

WestRock has other South Carolina facilities in Greer, Spartanburg and Florence.

The North Charleston mill employs approximately 500 people, according to the release. Employees will receive severance and outplacement assistance in accordance with WestRock policy and labor union agreements, the release stated.

In a separate release, Ingevity Corp. said that operations at the company’s North Charleston plant will continue as normal with the closure of WestRock.

The two companies will work together to transition limited shared services ahead of closure of the WestRock facility, according to the release. The companies share a common history, but Ingevity has operated as a stand-alone public company since May 2016.

“While we anticipate some cost with the transition of shared services, we expect minimal disruption to our operations,” said Ingevity president and CEO John Fortson in the release. “Our primary focus as WestRock exits their plant site is to ensure safe operations and continue to meet the needs of our customers.”

WestRock’s plant closure does not impact Ingevity’s recently announced long-term supply agreement for crude tall oil with WestRock, according to the release.

WestRock has more than 58,000 employees in the Americas, Europe and Asia-Pacific.
