Dr. Paul J. Ricca was a busy chemist back in 1975, he noticed that lab techs spent too much valuable time mixing solutions and preparing chemicals in order to perform tests. He realized that if labs had chemicals on-hand, pre-mixed and in sizes that were realistic to their use, that the lab would be a much more efficient place. From that vision – RICCA Chemical was born.
Dr. Ricca knew that quality products were key to optimum lab results too, so he mandated that RICCA chemicals didn’t just meet standard tolerances – they exceeded them. Better, more consistent testing results meant more efficiency for labs.
After originating in Arlington, Texas, RICCA has grown to three locations to provide redundancy in manufacturing and ensure that customers are never waiting for products – Batesville, IN and Pocomoke City, MD.
