About

MAKING WAY FOR INNOVATION.
A chemical by itself doesn't solve problems. But in the hands of a Buckman professional it becomes a solution. The difference? Commitment. A commitment to finding new and better ways to apply chemistries. To helping high-performance companies perform even better. To making service a science. And to finding sustainable ways of working that benefit not only ourselves and our customers, but also the communities we share.
Buckman is a privately held, global specialty chemical company with headquarters in Memphis, TN, USA, committed to safeguarding the environment, maintaining safety in the workplace, and promoting sustainable development. Buckman works proactively and collaboratively with its worldwide customers in pulp and paper, leather, and water treatment to deliver exceptional service and innovative specialty chemical solutions to help boost productivity, reduce risk, improve product quality, and provide a measurable return on investment.
How can we perform 65,000 tests, analyze 10,000 samples, and generate 5,000 problem-solving reports per year? We're fast — 12 chemists and a metallurgist achieving an industry-leading turnaround of just four days, with same-day and next-day analysis available when required. We utilize scanning electron microscopes and a million dollars' worth of other advanced equipment to accurately determine the composition of samples ranging from a 5-gallon pail of pulp to a speck of scale that can fit on the head of a pin.
We know the faster and better we work, the sooner your problem gets solved and the better your operation runs. Whenever you need microbiological or analytical expertise — and you need it fast — Buckman's Technical Services stands ready.
