A commitment to innovation, service and collaboration with customers to ensure high quality and efficiency 

Our roots in the chlorine, caustic soda, and potash industry run deep- from the creation of the earliest commercial diaphragm cells in the early 1920's, mercury cells in the 1940's, to the development of the very first membrane cell in the 1970's, to concentrating on the highest performing electrode structures and catalytic coatings today. We offer a high level of knowledge and experience in the design and manufacturing of anodes and cathodes made in titanium or nickel with a mixed precious metal oxide coating.
