About This Podcast

Chemicals touch our lives every day, in every way. From wherever you are reading this, you can’t reach out in front of you to touch something that hasn’t been brought to you by chemical production. The paint on our cars, the medications we take, even the municipal water we drink have all been impacted by chemicals. Chemical distributors and their affiliates work hard to keep these chemicals moving; to ensure business can flow seamlessly for the thousands of downstream industries which rely on them; and to provide the millions of products and services for the people who use them. From the Alliance for Chemical Distribution (ACD), this is Chemline: Inside the Chemical Distribution Industry. Taking you through the obstacles faced by those who keep the chemical distribution industry churning. Each month we’ll hear first-hand from experts on different topics that are affecting the industry.
