ChemSolv and Chemisphere, two leading regional chemical distributors, announced the launch of Integrity Partners Group (“IPG”), a full-line chemical distribution platform with comprehensive value-added solutions capabilities. IPG leverages the combined infrastructure and capabilities of ChemSolv and Chemisphere, offering customers a broader range of chemicals, ingredients, and services across more than 43 states and multiple international locations. Darren J. Birkelbach is serving as IPG’s Chief Executive Officer.

IPG has customers across the industrial, food and beverage, agriculture, personal care, life sciences, and coatings, adhesives, sealants, and elastomers (CASE) markets. Its network includes more than 150 world-class chemical and ingredient suppliers and over 1,000 products including high-purity solvents, industrial additives and modifiers, surfactants, lubricants and metalworking fluids, and diesel exhaust fluid. 

Drawing on the resources and expertise of ChemSolv and Chemisphere, IPG offers a full array of tailored solutions, including blending, packaging, quality testing, white-label formulations, custom logistics, repurchasing, and solvent recycling services. Combined infrastructure includes: 

  • 2.7 million gallons of storage capacity 
  • 80,000 gallons of blending capacity 
  • 35,000 square feet of manufacturing space
  • 300,000 square feet of storage across eight warehouses
  • Private fleet of approximately 50 trucks 

“Integrity Partners Group represents our commitment to continue delivering an exceptional experience for customers seeking world-class chemicals and ingredients with turnkey solutions,” said Birkelbach. “Our goal is to intensify our service-oriented platform with expanded capabilities in key geographies. At the same time, we will retain the integrity and customer focus, which have been the cornerstones of ChemSolv and Chemisphere. Both companies will also maintain their local brand as leading regional distributors for over 40 years.”
