Globed Chemical

Company Description

Globed Chemical was founded in 1960 as an industrial chemical distributor. The privately held company was founded to supply chemicals in Illinois. The company grew and in 1964 a specialty chemicals division emerged. That division supplied cleaning compounds, sanitizes and conveyor lubricant to the beverage, dairy, and food manufacturing industries nationwide. In the 1970's, the company began manufacturing sodium glucoheptonate. Initially, the manufacturing of sodium glucoheptonates was to supply the specialty chemicals division. In the 1980's, Globed Chemical began supplying formulators and concrete admixture plants with glucoheptonates. We began providing glucoheptonates to agricultural micronutrient producers in the mid 1980's. Today the manufacture and sale of sodium glucoheptonate products represent the core of Globed's business.
