He has held board positions at Pilot Chemical Company, Sivance LLC, and Cedar Concepts Corp, all specialty chemical companies, and served as CEO of Oxiteno USA, a surfactants company.

Additionally, he has provided commercial advisory services to Ballestra, a surfactants and oleochemicals technology company. He is currently strategic advisor to the board of Integrity Biochem.

Get the *&^%$ water out! .  Why are you as a consumer and we as a society schlepping water all across the fruited plain in order to meet our basic cleaning needs? It’s wasteful. Thankfully there is a lot of innovation going on in dry surfactants and consumer products. This presentation will cover the latest in dry products:  What are they? How are they made? Where are they used? What about Regulatory? And why are they interesting? 

This is an event you don’t want to miss! Register today!
