Company History
Velsicol is a company rich in history, dating back to its formation in 1931. In the 1980s, Velsicol was taken private when the company became more focused on benzoic acid and derivatives and more specifically, plasticizers. In 2005, the company was purchased by Arsenal Capital, a private equity firm.
At that time, the focus of the company continued to be investing in high-performance and specialty chemicals. In 2010, a sister company of Velsicol’s, Genovique Specialties, was sold. In 2012, the company was sold to its current management team. Today, the business is owned and run as a privately held company by an executive management team that have all worked for the company for many years.
We prioritize forging partnerships with our customers, suppliers and communities while maintaining a commitment to the specialty chemicals market.
With more than 95 years of experience, we are a company that is fully focused on sustainable growth. The Velsicol of today and tomorrow will carry on the tradition and commitment of our core values: QUALITY, SERVICE and PRODUCT STEWARDSHIP.
