Our Story

65 Years of being “Here for You!”

Chemistry is Life!  There are six elements that make up 99% of the human body (can you name them?*) and “metabolism” is trillions of chemical reactions happening simultaneously to keep us alive!

Chemistry is also essential to our quality of life and this is where our Company enters the picture.

Maryland Chemical Company is in the business of chemistry and since 1953, our team has been dedicated to serving our customers from our Baltimore City location with chemical products, warehousing and logistics services essential to their operations.  2018 marks our 65th anniversary and we are thrilled to be celebrating 65 years of being here for our customers, our people and our community.

With our chemistry, our customers purify our drinking water, keep our food supply safe, treat our wastewater, and manufacture many things from medicines to computer components.  Chemistry is used to keep facilities, equipment and vehicles clean and to help make our air, water and soil cleaner and healthier in our communities.  

For Maryland Chemical, innovating and adapting has included, since 2004:  becoming women owned and certified,  relocating our company to a state of the art and energy-efficient facility in Baltimore City and creating award-winning green and sustainable products and services for our customers.

We are proud to be a veteran-founded, third generation business, providing diverse jobs, giving back to our community and helping to create economic vibrancy in our region and beyond.  

Since the founding year of 2015, our Company is proud to be a sponsor of the Local and Maryland State “You Be the Chemist” Challenges, a chemistry competition among students from middle schools in Maryland. These budding scientists compete at the local, state and national level and are the future of our world!  Check out www.chemed.org for more information on the 2018 Challenge.

For over 25 years Maryland Chemical Company has held the Responsible Distribution Third-Party Verification from the National Association of Chemical Distributors (NACD), a code of management practice focused on continuous improvement in health, safety, security and environmental performance of our operations.

2018 marks our 65th anniversary and we are thrilled to be celebrating 65 years of being here for our customers, our people and our community.
