OUR STORY
Raw Materials Corporation (RMC) was incorporated in 1985 in Houston, Texas and has since become a trusted wholesale distributor to the Specialty Chemicals Market. Founded on three generations of family expertise in the chemical services and distribution market dating back to the mid-1930s, the business continues to thrive under the guidance of the fourth and fifth generations. With each generation, the business has adapted to changes in the market, staying competitive while maintaining core values.
