Lintech International LLC recently announced it has become the first specialty chemical distributor to be fully Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT) certified. C-TPAT is a voluntary government-business initiative that builds cooperative relationships between U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and international supply chain businesses such as importers, carriers, consolidators, licensed customs brokers, and manufacturers. Through this initiative, CBP asks businesses to ensure the integrity of their security practices within the supply chain. Lintech voluntarily entered the C-TPAT to ensure its supply chain is fully secure.

“We took this step as a part of our commitment to the continuous improvement of Responsible Distribution and integrated these procedures into our ISO 9001:2008 certified quality processes,” said Dennis Gillespie, president. “We want to ensure that our world-class suppliers are represented by a best-in-class specialty distributor.”
