When writers and reporters are looking for a comment from an industry professional or perspectives on business growth, regulatory measures or sustainability, the Michigan Chemistry Council will be there to serve as the authority on our industry.

How Can MCC Member Companies get Involved?
Just as the MCC’s members help inform our work on sound public policies, we also need regular member communication about trends and issues impacting their businesses. We appreciate the ongoing dialogue with members about these important issues, as well as frequent updates on new developments at our member facilities and businesses. At times, we may even reach out to individual members about serving as a contact for a particular story.
Members can also help guide our work through the Communications & Outreach Committee, and by promoting social media content featuring the MCC and industry issues.
MCC’s member companies and the work they’re accomplishing everyday are the living stories of the business of chemistry in Michigan. Help us let everyone know about it. If you have any questions or insights, please contact MCC Executive Director John Dulmes today at [email protected] or 517-372-8898.
