The purchase is intended to expand Chroma Color's product offerings in the wire and cable marketplace and other key market segments.

In a move that aims to expand its product offerings in the wire and cable marketplace and other key market segments, Chroma Color Corp. has acquired Color Resource LLC, a manufacturer of colour concentrates for the telecommunications, fibre, building, electronics, and specialty wire markets.

The financial terms of the deal have not been disclosed.
