The company’s flagship product, PeroxyMAX, enables rapid bacteria control and solids separation more efficiently and safely than alternative options like chlorine dioxide. PeroxyMAX has a loyal existing customer base, and demand is quickly accelerating.
In 2018, through a partnership and injection of growth capital from Black Bay Energy Capital (“Black Bay”), Clean Chemistry expanded its client base, management team, and service offerings as a high-tech chemistry and service provider. The company’s footprint extends with operations in Colorado, Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, and North Dakota.
