SMC Global, a leading manufacturer and supplier of high-quality chemical products and industrial services, announced on November 13 that it has acquired International Chemicals LLC (ICC). The monetary terms of the acquisition are still under wraps. This move will significantly strengthen its presence in the oil & gas and produced water treatment markets. The acquisition merges SMC's existing oilfield business with ICC's operations, creating a more expansive and innovative portfolio of products and services designed to meet the growing demands of these vital industries.

Following the acquisition, ICC will operate as a subsidiary of SMC Global, maintaining its strong market presence from its state-of-the-art facilities in Texas. The 8-acre site includes a dedicated applications & quality control laboratory, a well-equipped trucking fleet, manufacturing capabilities, and 90,000 square feet of warehousing space all of which support efficient operations and high customer satisfaction.

Kevin Huber and Adam Feldman, founders of ICC, expressed their enthusiasm about the acquisition, highlighting its strategic value for both companies. "This acquisition strengthens our commitment to providing innovative and reliable solutions for the Oil & Gas and Produced Water Treatment industries. By combining our expertise and resources, we are creating a powerhouse in the market, ready to meet the evolving needs of our customers and address new opportunities together," said the founders.

The merger positions SMC Global and International Chemicals for sustained growth and success. SMC Global has established itself as a key player in the industrial chemicals sector, providing creative, flexible, and cost-effective solutions to daily supply chain challenges. The acquisition enhances SMC’s ability to provide comprehensive solutions for the oil and gas industry, particularly in the critical area of produced water treatment, an essential aspect of modern oil extraction and environmental sustainability.

The acquisition aligns with SMC Global’s long-term growth strategy, which includes expanding its offerings in key industrial sectors like oil and gas, water treatment, and other related markets. The merger also enhances SMC’s commitment to sustainability, a priority in the oil and gas sector, particularly in the treatment and management of produced water, a byproduct of oil and gas production that requires safe and efficient treatment solutions.
