Miller sells its products into the farming and agricultural industries in more than 90 countries and targets the high value segment of fruits, nuts and vegetables.

“The acquisition of Miller furthers HEM’s mission to build a diverse portfolio of small to medium sized, competitively advantaged businesses in the chemical and mineral markets,” says Dan Krawczyk, president of HEM. “We are excited to welcome Miller’s employees into the HEM organization and work with them to continue to serve their customers globally with world-class products and services.”

The current management team and employees will continue to operate Miller’s operations and serve the company’s customers as a business unit within HEM. Huber looks forward to investing and growing the capabilities of the business for the long-term strategic needs of its customers.

Mike Marberry, CEO and president of the J.M. Huber Corporation, said: “This acquisition is a strategically important step in Huber’s ongoing effort to diversify its overall portfolio with new specialty businesses that can grow and deliver significant value to their customers. This marks a significant milestone in HEM’s history, and we look forward to introducing Miller’s employees to the Huber Principles, and working with them to expand this business on a global basis.”
