Akrochem

Akrochem is a leading supplier of compounding materials and chemical additives, primarily serving the rubber, plastics, adhesives, and coatings industries. Founded in 1929 and headquartered in Akron, Ohio, the company provides a comprehensive portfolio of products including accelerators, antioxidants, resins, and pigments. While Akrochem serves the healthcare sector by providing high-quality materials for medical device components and pharmaceutical packaging, it is not a biotechnology or pharmaceutical company engaged in drug discovery or clinical development. The company was acquired by Audax Private Equity in 2021 to support its continued growth and expansion as a value-added distributor in the specialty chemicals market.
