We take pride in our almost 50 years of experience in the chemical industry. We have five bulk terminals located in Birmingham, AL, Nashville, TN, Tupelo MS, Mobile, AL, and Atlanta, GA. With product from refineries and large chemical producers around the world, we stock over 40 commodity solvents in bulk at each location, with over 1.7 million gallons of total storage capacity.
While many of our customers purchase these products simply as stock chemicals, our real strength comes from our ability to create custom blends uniquely formulated for your production needs. Focusing on your priorities for safety, performance, compliance, and the environment, we aren't satisfied with just moving volume. We design solutions that improve our customers' operations by making their priorities our own.
Unwavering in our focus on our core values-- Integrity, Quality, Stewardship, Service and Discovery-- we strive every day to meet the unique needs of each client we serve. Research. Solutions. Two element forming one dynamic compound. And one dynamic company.
As a full-service chemical distributor, Research Solutions is committed to providing quality solutions to your waste management needs, from minimizing waste generation on the front end to providing waste collection and disposal needs on the back end. We also take the guesswork out of federal, state and local regulations to make sure you always attain full compliance. Because we are focused on being faithful stewards of the environment, we continuously seek better ways to help preserve our planet in all that we do.
