American Chemet Corporation

Today, American Chemet is the world leader for Cuprous and Cupric Oxides, the first of which was developed in 1962. American Chemet Export Corporation was formed to concentrate on sales opportunities outside the United States and since then has developed a worldwide network of agents and distributors. American Chemet Corporation is a privately­ owned company that manufactures and markets Metal Oxides, Powders and chemicals, concentrating in Copper and Zinc. In the late 1970’s, American Chemet began to look toward the export markets for growth. The first plant was in Chicago; within a year, manufacturing was moved to East Helena, Montana. Since that time, the Company has grown steadily through continual product improvement and development. During its history, the Company has organized and operated businesses to produce paint, mine Talc and Onyx, and manufacture Cuprous and Cupric Oxides, Copper Catalysts and Copper Powder.
