Specialty Chemicals from MSA Enhance Daily Life

You are more likely to think of MSA when you pass a construction site than when you swallow a pill, or fill a plastic container. Likewise, MSA seldom comes to mind when your automotive air bag bursts to absorb the impact of your body in an accident or an electronic component allows you to make important decisions as part of your job responsibility.

But MSA is indeed part of such personal moments, and represented by our Callery Chemical Company division, located about an hour north of Pittsburgh. Founded in 1948, Callery is the world’s leading supplier of commercial quantities of boron chemicals, metal alkoxides, and alkali metals.

Callery produces these products for a variety of applications, such as government, industry, and research and development. Although the pharmaceutical industry is Callery’s largest market, other applications can be found in electronics, computers, automotive air bags, respiratory and environmental protective equipment, agrochemicals, plastics, flavors and fragrances, and polymers.

Callery currently markets products directly in the U.S., Europe, Southeast Asia, and India, with agents networking 15 countries around the world. For more information about what Callery might do for you, call Mike Carpenter at 1-412-967-4349.
