VETERAN CHEMICALS, INC.

Veteran Chemicals, Inc. specializes in the manufacturing and delivery of critical inorganic chemicals and industrial gases for federal mission-critical applications. The company’s core expertise lies in producing high-purity ferric chloride for water treatment and corrosion control in defense infrastructure, as well as supplying compressed hydrogen gas under strict hazmat protocols for scientific and meteorological operations. Their technical proficiency includes precision chemical formulation, compliant packaging, secure logistics, and end-to-end supply chain management for hazardous materials, ensuring adherence to DOT, OSHA, and EPA standards. A key differentiator is their ability to deliver consistent, just-in-time quantities of specialized reagents and gases under long-term option contracts, demonstrating reliability in mission-sensitive environments where purity and timing are non-negotiable. The company maintains a strong, recurring relationship with the Department of Defense, primarily supporting environmental and infrastructure programs through the supply of ferric chloride used in wastewater purification at military installations. For the Department of Commerce, they provide hydrogen gas to National Weather Service facilities, enabling atmospheric research and upper-air balloon launches with certified gas purity and safe cylinder handling. These engagements reflect a pattern of sustained, multi-year partnerships rooted in technical precision and regulatory compliance. Veteran Chemicals, Inc. operates primarily within NAICS 325180 (other basic inorganic chemical manufacturing) and 325120 (industrial gas manufacturing), positioning itself as a niche supplier of regulated, high-integrity chemical and gas products for government science and defense applications. Their market focus is on mission-critical, low-volume, high-reliability segments rather than bulk commodity production. As a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Business structured as a 2L entity, the company leverages federal procurement preferences while maintaining operational excellence from its base in Valparaiso, Indiana. Its certifications and consistent performance in hazardous material handling reinforce its credibility as a trusted government supplier in specialized chemical and gas markets.
