Top 100 Chemical Distributors listing

Chemical Distributors (CACD), and UK-based
Chemical Business Association (CBA).
We thank the associations and their memberships for making such a comprehensive listing possible,
and for the commitment to
the safety and security of operations for their employees,
communities and supply
chains.
The breadth and variety of
product lines, capabilities
and geographic reach are
absolutely stunning
This year we have a record 231 entries – up
from 213 in the previous year. The vast majority of the companies are privately held, so we
work directly with them to secure information
and data. In separate tables we also break out
leaders by sales in the key geographic regions
of North America, Europe, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East and Africa. ■
