Research and Development Company, Incorporated in 2005

Geochem Solutions Inc. was founded in January 2005 with a vision of offering personalized technical services to our clients in an atmosphere of mutual collaboration and trust. Our Somerville, New Jersey headquarters is home to our onsite R&D Laboratories, including Polymer and Pilot Synthesis Laboratories, Analytical Laboratories and Application Testing Laboratories.

Geochem Solutions focuses on solving customer problems and supplying companies with value-added raw materials and solutions. We pride ourselves on demonstrating our unique balance of product development skills, market knowledge and focus on successful technology transfer and rapid product commercialization. Some of our key markets serviced within the specialty coatings industry include thin film applications (foils & holography); aerosol and automotive quality paints; electronic coatings; cosmetic and personal care; food and beverage and affiliated industries. With numerous company mergers and acquisitions within the specialty coatings industry (CIA markets – coatings, inks and adhesives), rising raw material costs and product line consolidations, customers continue to struggle for new means of increasing their profit margins. A key goal of Geochem Solutions is to help clients increase their profit margins by using more “custom-tailored” niche products, compared to using traditional commodities that result in lower profit margins.

Custom services include organic synthesis; new product development or improved chemical formulations; analytical services or specialty designed consulting services. With an emphasis on long-term relationships and value-added development services and supply, we plan to become a leading provider of “custom-tailored” polymer solutions. We intend to support and consult with our clients, offering specialized made-to-order products and services that fit the individual needs of our clients and partnerships. We operate under strict confidential relationships that allow us to grant exclusivity and offer innovative solutions to foster the success of our customers. By offering custom designed polymers and laboratory services, we pride ourselves on a truly customer-centric business model. It’s no surprise that our customer service mark reflects our customer-centric approach of  “Transforming Ideas into Solutions.”
