For more than 60 years, Pilot Chemical Company has worked closely with its customers to provide solutions based on its expertise involving alkylation, sulfonation, amidation, sulfation and a number of other specialty operations.
Earlier this month, Pilot expanded its ability to help customers with their formulation challenges by purchasing Mason Chemical, an expert in quaternium ammonium compounds and related chemistries. The acquisition illustrates Pilot Chemical’s commitment to provide a broader product portfolio, new technology and applications expertise to better serve its customers, explained Pam Butcher, president and COO of Pilot Chemical.
“This is a win for our customers who had asked us to broaden our portfolio,” recalled Butcher. “There was virtually no overlap between the two businesses.”
She noted that, like Pilot, Mason was a privately-held company and has more than 40 years of experience.
“As a privately-held company, we have the flexibility to quickly respond to customer requests,” said Butcher. “Since the acquisition was announced, we’ve had very positive feedback from our customers as well as our suppliers.”
