Competition
Competitive Landscape for General Chemical Industrial Products Inc.
Demand depends on the overall strength of the US economy, because most industrial chemicals are used in the manufacture of more-complicated products like fibers, plastics, paints, and paper.

Big producers have large economies of scale in production, which is why some chemicals are made by just a handful of companies. Small companies can compete effectively by making specialized or highly-purified products. The industry is capital-intensive: average annual revenue per employee is about $600,000.
