Snyder Manufacturing was founded in 1951 when Raymond and Jean Snyder acquired the estate of Ken Simmons and Simco Products in Kansas City, Missouri. As the West Coast factory representative for Simco's line of automotive service products, the decision was made to relocate the plant to Torrance, California and subsequently to our current headquarters in the port city of Long Beach, California.
With the passing of Raymond in 1977, Snyder Manufacturing was transferred to second generation Eric & Janet Snyder. The business then transitioned from a primarily automotive chemical business to adding full service custom chemical compounding to service aerospace, household, and defense.
In 2023, it seemed to be the appropriate time to transfer Snyder Manufacturing to the third generation. Darren & Jessica Deaton-Snyder assumed the control of Snyder Manufacturing, envisioning a bright future for specialty chemical compounding, toll blending, and packaging services for a wider and increasingly discriminating marketplaces. A bright future is on the horizon!
