Temix Oleo SRL and Acme-Hardesty, a division of Jacob Stern & Sons, have signed a letter of intent (LOI) for Acme-Hardesty to distribute Temix Oleo products in the United States. Acme-Hardesty will promote and sell Temix Oleo specialty esters and specialty oleochemicals and derivatives in the U.S. marketplace, primarily in lubricant and personal care markets. The products will be sold under the Temest and Acitem brands. Acme-Hardesty will manage the sales, marketing and distribution of these products along with Temix pelargonic and azelaic acids. Temix is the exclusive representative for the Matrilox brand of products manufactured by Matrica in Sardinia.
“Temix Oleo shares our passion for environmental responsibility, and our partnership allows us to offer sustainably sourced products – and even tailor-made options – to the lubricant and personal care markets,” says Graeme Biggin, Director of New Business Development for Acme-Hardesty. “This represents the first time that the company’s products will be available in the United States, expanding choices for our customers.”
Temix Oleo SRL was formed through the acquisition of Oleochimica Italia (previously Undesa Italia) by Temix International. With a focus on green chemistry and renewable resources, Temix Oleo has quickly become a well-known resource for specialty oleochemical esters in Europe. Both specialty and custom products are produced at the back-integrated, flexible Temix ester operation in Bologna, Italy.
