Formaldehyde is one of the most widely used industrial chemicals in the world. Its low cost, high purity, and versatility make it a critical building block for resins, plastics, coatings, adhesives, and specialty chemicals. From construction materials to automotive components and engineered wood products, formaldehyde-derived resins are essential to global manufacturing.
Harris Thermal partners with industry leaders in formaldehyde and resin production, supplying custom-engineered ASME-code equipment designed to meet the demanding requirements of high-volume chemical processing. Our long-standing reputation for excellent service and superior fabrication has made us a trusted supplier to this industry.
