Suppliers
Florachem has built excellent long-term alliances with suppliers all over the world. These relationships have strengthened over time, through cycle after cycle, year after year. And they allow us to give our customers accurate, reliable appraisals of changing market situations. In the event of inevitable shortages or high prices, we have the ability to find alternatives or extenders to save customers money while assuring availability.
Our citrus business has been a core of our success for twenty years. In 2008, we increased our commitment to this sector by acquiring a citrus oil folding facility in Mission, Texas. This strategic location is well situated not only for incoming raw materials from Florida, California and Brazil, it is also next to the expanding Mexican citrus growing region.
In June of 2010, we added a manufacturing plant in Atlacomulco, Mexico. This site produces a variety of Florachem’s Pine Solvents including Terpineol AF100, Florasolv DPE Dipentene, and various Pine Oil products. Our pine-chemicals supply chain continues to extend reach into China, South America, United States, Scandinavia, and other countries within the Asia-Pacific region. We supply dimer acids, rosin and rosin esters, tall oil fatty acids, and a variety of solvents derived from pine chemicals.
At Florachem, we understand the products we sell and their applications. This makes us much more than a commodities vendor; it makes us a valuable partner to our suppliers and customers alike.
A Note To Prospective Suppliers
If you are a manufacturer interested in forming a potential partnership with Florachem, please give us a call to discuss product lines, business practices and possibly schedule a plant visit. Although we have rigorous standards that must be met before we will handle a supplier’s products, we’re always seeking partners who share our passion for excellence.
