Committed to growth & progress

Boehle Chemicals, Inc. was established by Fred F. Boehle in 1964 when he purchased the Michigan office of the S. S. Skelton Company. At that time, Boehle Chemicals was positioned as a manufacturers' representative covering the Paint and Coatings industry in Michigan and northwest Ohio.


Much has changed within our organization over the last 50 plus years. Boehle Chemicals is now both a stocking distributor and manufacturers' representative covering all of Michigan, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Missouri, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wisconsin, West Virginia as well as Western Pennsylvania and Western New York.


By helping to identify new market opportunities and by providing better service, this investment in our future has increased our value to our suppliers as well. By leveraging these strengths and keen focus on changing customer demands, Boehle Chemicals, Inc. is prepared to meet the future challenges that face our industry into the 21st Century and beyond.

Boehle Chemicals, Inc.'s Mission is to be the customers' first call


Being a founding member of the National Association of Chemical Distributors and our early adoption of the Responsible Distribution Process shows our dedication and commitment to our industry, as well as the needs and concerns of compliance with all regulatory and environmental requirements. This commitment helps us to exceed our customer's and principal's expectations. Our business is built upon the development of our people and the relationships we build with both our customers and suppliers. Total customer satisfaction is a constant goal that we strive to achieve every day.


This continual pursuit through our superior technical and marketing support along with our award winning customer service, distinguishes us as the supplier of choice for many leading companies in our field. By distinguishing ourselves as a valued resource, most customers make us their first call.

Mission Statement

What does our future look like?

Our future growth will be achieved by helping our customers and suppliers to succeed. We have invested in our people and technology systems to increase our ability to add value to our customers' products as well as solve their complex supply chain issues.


By helping to identify new market opportunities and by providing better service, this investment in our future has increased our value to our suppliers as well. By leveraging these strengths and keen focus on changing customer demands, Boehle Chemicals, Inc. is prepared to meet the future challenges that face our industry into the 21st Century and beyond.

"As a founding member of the NACD, we proudly stand behind the Responsible Distribution Process."

In this vein, we continue to strive for improved quality of both product and suppliers for a competitive position and future growth. Teamwork between our technical sales representatives, customer service staff and suppliers is the key to this success.


This attitude is a reflection of the new direction taken since our new ownership in 1993. These changes include greater customer focus, improved customer service and an increased emphasis on niche market penetration. This was the leading factor in the 2001 acquisition of the Cleveland based Kamin-Cable, Inc. By targeted geographic expansion and superior technical selling, we aim to increase our value to both our suppliers and our customers. Our implementation of Chemical Distributor focused software in 2007, our ISO Certification in 2011 and our move to an expanded and more updated headquarters in 2019 are further investments to accomplish this goal.


It is felt that through a relentless pursuit of perfection in all facets of our business, both we and our suppliers will benefit through increased customer satisfaction and loyalty. The bottom line goal is growth through expansion of current markets, entering new markets and differentiated marketing for our current suppliers and products.


Done correctly, with a keen focus on our customers, this should be a win for all parties.
