Acquisition if Augusta, Southern States returns to its roots

Sulfuric acid producer Southern States Chemical (SSC) recently added a manufacturing facility to its inventory of production sites. With two coastal sites already part of the SSC family, the newest addition, based in Augusta, GA, provides an inland location and thus protection from coastal storms. SSC purchased the idled plant, formerly owned by ChemTrade, in the Spring of 2022. Over the following year and a half, a team of SSC staff and industrial contractors refurbished the facility to meet its new owner’s exacting goals, including enhancing the reliability of acid supply for its customers.
