Building and protecting the future
using innovative science today
150 years ago, Hexion started as a condensed milk company. (Yes, really).
Our legacy can be traced to Gail Borden, who was an inventor focused on developing new food concentrates to alleviate the hardships experienced by pioneers. His epitaph is the mark of a true innovator: “I tried and failed. I tried again and again, and succeeded.”
This philosophy continues to inspire and guide us, even today.
Modern life requires the use of resources. We aim to make gathering those resources as ethical, efficient, and ecosystem friendly as possible.
