In business since 1996. Two facilities, one phone number.
A market-leading chemical services company built on two Southern California facilities, an on-site laboratory, and certifications that are audited rather than asserted.
Who we are
Miles Chemical Company has become a market-leading chemical services company for metal manufacturing and surface finishing, electronics and semiconductor, food and beverage, nutritional, personal care, industrial, and municipal and industrial water treatment.
Our business segments include chemical distribution, custom liquid and dry blending, an analytical laboratory, environmental services covering waste transportation and emergency response, and third-party logistics.
We recognise that our customers' quality depends in part on the quality of their suppliers. That is the argument behind every certification we hold, every batch record we keep, and every Certificate of Analysis we issue.
What that means in practice
It means the person who answers the phone can price the item, check stock, and tell you the next delivery day to your area — because they are looking at the same system the driver and the warehouse are.
It means a question about a lot delivered eighteen months ago can still be answered, because the batch record and the retained sample still exist.
And it means we will tell you when a product you are asking for is not the right one, when a competitor has a genuine route advantage to your area, or when the honest answer is that you already have what you need. A customer who feels oversold does not stay one.
The laboratory
The analytical laboratory in Arleta releases every blended batch against its specification, supports customers with bath analysis and troubleshooting, and develops formulations — whether that is matching a product you already buy or building something to a performance requirement you have not been able to meet.
Southern California, stocked for route delivery
Corporate offices, the analytical laboratory, liquid blending, and the primary distribution hub. Batches from 55 to 6,000 gallons are made and released here.
Secondary distribution, warehousing, and third-party logistics. For customers in Orange County and south it shortens the delivery route considerably.
