AboutProChem Inc

Company Overview

ProChem Inc. was founded in 1986 by Reno Novak as a manufacturing company producing high purity inorganic chemicals and materials. For over 35 years we have been supplying a variety of industries with unique rare earth, inorganic and organometallic compounds. These products are utilized in a wide range of applications including computer chip technology, lasers, ceramics, alternative energy, and bio-medical technologies.

In 1988 ProChem Inc. began collaboration with Lawrence Livermore National Laboratories (LLNL) to produce the highest purity Potassium Dihydrogen Phosphate for growing extremely large crystals which are used at the National Ignition Facility (NIF). The NIF employs the largest laser in the world as they attempt to produce fusion energy and ProChem Inc. is proud to partner with LLNL in this endeavor.

Since that time, we have expanded our product portfolio into over 1,000 items that have been supplied to industrial and academic customers. More recently ProChem Inc. was proud to produce a catalyst for the emergency mass production of Remdesivir, also known as Veklury, which is an FDA approved medication for the treatment of hospitalized COVID-19 patients.

As ProChem Inc. continues to help the world innovate and thrive we look forward to partnering with you to provide you with the highest quality materials.

ProChem Inc. has been a constant supporter of: St. Jude’s Children Hospital; World Wildlife Federation; The Humane Society; ASPCA; Guiding Eyes for the Blind; Nature Conservatory; PAWS Humane Society; and the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation.
