Perigee Direct Now Part of Chemical Concepts

HUNTINGDON VALLEY, Pa. – Locally-based Chemical Concepts has acquired Perigee Direct, a Texas-based supplier of specialty consumables for science and industrial consumers, expanding its product portfolio, e-commerce capabilities and distribution footprint in the process.

Chemical Concepts is a leader in adhesives and sealants. The acquisition will expand its product categories to plastic welding equipment, industrial lubricants and filling systems. Perigee has a track record in precision adhesives, resins, lab consumables and specialty chemicals.

The move is expected to enhance Chemical Concepts’ ability to serve both B2B and B2C customers nationwide.

A key benefit of the deal is Perigee Direct’s location in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. Its Texas operation will operate as a strategic distribution hub, reducing delivery times for customers in the western and southern United States.

Andrew Morris, CEO of Chemical Concepts says Perigee Direct is focused on delivering an excellent user experience with deep expertise in specialty applications.

“They possess exactly the capabilities and market presence we are seeking,” Morris says.

Matt Jackson, CEO of Perigee Direct agrees that the Chemical Concepts’ mission aligns perfectly with his company’s.

“They offer exactly the scale and resource diversity that Perigee Direct needs to take our mission of transforming the industry supply customer experience to the next level,” Jackson says.

For customers, both customer bases will keep their existing service relationships while gaining the benefits of a stronger combined operation.
