Our History

Diversified CPC was originally founded as the Chemical Products Company, this organization began by supplying alcohol and general chemicals to industry pioneers who would eventually influence the future of the aerosol business. As the demand for better propellants increased, Diversified CPC grew to become the leading supplier of propellants and related products to the aerosol industry.

FACILITIES
The hydrocarbon propellant division began in 1964 with a single manufacturing facility in Blackwell, Oklahoma, and a distribution center in Frankfort, Illinois. In 1976, the facility in Anaheim, California, was purchased and modified to handle the manufacture of hydrocarbon products.

Diversified CPC International's corporate headquarters and flagship manufacturing facility were built in Channahon, Illinois in 1982. In 1988, extensive modernization was completed, centering on the installation of an exclusive hydrogenation process and on-line quality control sampling devices. Equipment to expand the company's raw material base, additional storage tanks, vapor recovery unit, and in-line blending capabilities were also added.

Additional production facilities are located in Sparta, New Jersey, Anaheim, California, and Petal, Mississippi. Advanced distribution terminals include Homestead, Florida, serving the Caribbean and Ajax, Ontario, serving Canada.

Further steps toward becoming a world leader were achieved in 1985, as Diversified CPC and Klockner and CO. partnered in a joint venture to manufacture hydrocarbon aerosol propellant for Western Europe. In 1998 Diversified CPC and CCL Custom Manufacturing partnered with the Shangai Wai Gao Qiao Free Trade Zone Xin Development Company to develop a state of the art propellant production and contract packaging facility in the Yang Yuan Town Pudong New Area, Shanghai, PRC.
