"The sale of the Belle Chemical Company to Arclin was a logical next step for the business as Belle Chemical Company transitions to a growth company," said Belle Chemical Company Plant Manager Alicha Hunt. "Belle's customers will benefit from Arclin's breadth of expertise in chemical manufacture and distribution and interest in rapid deployment of resources in support of the growth strategy," she said.
