COMPANY HISTORY
In 1988, Ed Richman started Richman Chemical Inc. (RCI) to help emerging and established pharmaceutical and chemical companies use resources more efficiently. Ed started his career in synthetic Fiber R&D with Celanese and Rohm & Hass. He worked at National Starch for 10 years; eventually serving as Director, Chemical Business. He observed first-hand the intricacies of outsourcing within the chemical industry and parlayed that experience into the establishment of the company. RCI’s custom manufacturing, product sourcing, and project management solutions make it possible for companies to spend more time in their area of expertise and core technology development.
