The Society of Chemical Manufacturers & Affiliates (SOCMA) recently welcomed eight companies to its growing specialty and fine chemical community, bringing the total number of new members for the first half of 2021 to 17. The most recent additions include: Milliken, Colonial Chemical, Oakwood Chemical, Ereztech, Entegris, Colour Synthesis Solutions, Berjé, and Envirotech Services.
Milliken, a global research, design, and manufacturing company headquartered in Spartanburg, S.C., is reportedly looking to leverage SOCMA’s commercial offerings and build deeper business relationships within the specialty chemical community. “Milliken has benefited from the Specialty & Custom Chemicals Show and its affiliate events in the past,” said Brian Burkhart, vice president, Milliken Fine Chemical Products. “Manufacturing is the core of our Fine Chemical business, and we participate in the key market segments SOCMA represents. Milliken is excited to support the association and work together to make our chemical manufacturing industry stronger.”
Returning member Oakwood Chemical, a fine organics manufacturer in Estill, S.C., reportedly rejoined the association following SOCMA’s purchase of the Specialty & Custom Chemicals Show. “As our company continues to grow, rejoining SOCMA will not only help maintain a professional network within the chemical industry, but also provide vital resources as we navigate constant regulatory changes,” said Carrie Strickland, regulatory manager, Oakwood Chemical.
