Agricultural chemicals
First established in Hollywood,
California in 1918 by William H. Atwill as
National National Chemical NACCO, as a distributor for Mallinkrodt reagent
chemicals and Eastman Kodak company. A few years later in1921 the company
began to supply its own proprietary photographic chemicals to the growing
Hollywood movie industry and also developed chemical specialty products for
the metal, automobile and cleaning applications. Prior to World War II the
company’s sales focus was the southern California area. However in 1944 John
F. Atwill, succeeded his father and moved the Company to downtown Los
Angeles in the early 1950’s rapidly expanded and diversified the product
line to include marine and petroleum chemical specialties, industrial,
aircraft and water treatment chemicals.
As the Company continued to expand it
moved to a new 5 acre manufacturing
facility in 1956 and Incorporated as National Research & Chemical Company.
Sales’ offices were located in the metropolitan cities of Hamburg, Munich,
Tokyo, Mexico City, Buenos Aires, Sydney, New York, Los Angeles, San
Francisco and Sunnyvale, California. Satellite manufacturing facilities were
located in Tokyo, Hamburg, New York, Mexico City and Sunnyvale.
The early 1970’s opened an opportunity to produce electronic printed circuit
board chemicals and marked the beginning of Grow More fertilizers and
Micronutrients for agriculture and horticulture.
The development of agricultural cheated
micronutrients derived from
knowledge gained in the formulation of boiler, power generating and water
treatment chemicals.
In the 1980’s was a time of rapid
expansion for agricultural, horticultural,
animal health products, retail small packages for the lawn and garden
markets. This time period also marked a decline in market share for
electronics, water treatment and industrial chemicals.
The 1980’s also marks the time of a
Company name change transition from
NACCO (National Research and Chemical Company) to Grow More, Inc. Today Our products are
distributed worldwide and throughout the Western United States through a
dealer/distributor network. World headquarters are located in Gardena, California, an
industrial manufacturing area located Midway between the port of Los Angeles and Los
Angeles City.
Twenty minutes from the Los Angeles International Airport and ten minutes
away from the port of Los Angeles. Corporate Headquarters lodge
manufacturing facilities and research laboratories, making the company
basically self-sufficient in the total implementation of product quality
control and most new projects.
Manufacturing facilities include 3 powder production units with an annual
capacity of 44 million pounds (20million kilograms), with capacities to
spray dry, flake dry and centrifuge. The liquid production facility
capabilities include exothermic and endothermic reactors, evaporation,
extraction, emulsification, ammunition, esterfication, reduction (acid,
alkaline), with an annual capacity of 1.3 million gallons (4.9 million
liters).
Over the last seven decades Grow More has evolved to its present status as a
company, which solves problems through applied research. The strength
created by the company results from the application of scientific methology.
Constant achievement through applied research describes in brief the total
commitment provided by Grow More products and personnel. This happens
through quantitative analysis, and quality control. The high degree of
professionalism, which exists at Grow More is prominent among the many
reasons why customers continue to rely on the firm.
Perhaps the best evidence is reflected in the longevity of the relationship
between customers and manufacturer, many of which are approaching 30 years.

Georgia Gulf Sulfur Corporation began operating in 1959 as a wholly owned
subsidiary of Parramore and Griffin Seed Company in Valdosta Georgia. The
Georgia Gulf Sulfur manufacturing plant located in Bainbridge Georgia, was
conceived and built to manufacture milled agricultural sulfur for the
peanut, peach, and citrus industries.
During the mid-sixties, the advent of synthetic fungicides moved Georgia
Gulf Sulfur into broader industrial sulfur markets. The resulting present
day mix of EPA registered pesticides and trademarked products for the
rubber, heavy industry, and specialty manufacturing industries has allowed
Georgia Gulf Sulfur to grow and prosper through the years. Georgia Gulf
Sulfur separated from the parent corporation in 1982 and became a privately
held company.
Bainbridge Chemical Corporation, a homogenized sulfur manufacturer,
specializing in fluid and flowable sulfurs, began operations at the Georgia
Gulf Sulfur Bainbridge site in late 1983
In July 1988, Georgia Gulf Sulfur purchased holly industries in Acton
Ontario Canada, to further compliment expanding product lines and reach more
distant markets in the United States as well as Canada. The Holly process
equipment was moved to Acton in 1978 from a former FMC Corporation plant
site in Burlington Ontario.
In January 1993, Georgia Gulf Sulfur purchased the Rhone-Poulenc sulfur
plant in Freeport Texas, (previously operated as Stauffer Chemical Company)
and renamed the facility S.F. Sulfur Corporation. There has been a sulfur
processing plant operating at the Freeport site since 1916.
In June 1997, Georgia Gulf Sulfur purchased controlling interest in
International Sulphur Inc. of Mt. Pleasant Texas. Operating in Houston Texas
since 1950, International Sulphur moved to Mt. Pleasant in 1969 to be near a
sulfur source. A second plant in Middle Point Ohio was consolidated to the
Mt. Pleasant location in 1986.
With these manufacturing plants located throughout North America, Georgia
Gulf Sulfur enhances its long term commitment to quality and service, and
obtains competitive shipping rates to markets in the Caribbean, South
America, and the Pacific Rim.

As we enter a new century full of challenges and opportunities, one fact is
clear... Our planet's rapid population growth and rising demand for natural
resources continues to increase pressure on all agricultural and industrial
production systems. In nations around the globe, corporate managements are
rethinking the underlying assumptions of our companies. Westbridge is one of
these companies who is progressively persuing environmentally sound
opportunities and technologies for Our future.
We are dedicated to cultivating environmental awareness through safe
agricultural, home and garden products and technologies; and to forming
prosperous partnerships that deliver ecologically sound products to growers
and gardeners of all sizes worldwide. Beginning with our formation in 1982,
the mission of Westbridge has been to develop and manufacture
environmentally safe products for agriculture, turf, lawn and garden. Our
mission has since expanded to include a line of odor control and
bioremediation products for agriculture, industrial and municipal wastes
using the same sound scientific methods and an overall biorational focus. We
have also refined our custom formulation techniques and have expanded into
contract manufacturing.
Today, growers can call on biological products that are highly targeted,
very effective, and safe for workers, consumers, and the environment.
Westbridge has successfully developed and marketed EPA-registered plant
growth regulators and specialty micronutrient products for use on a wide
variety of fruit, vegetable, and non-edible crops.
The Westbridge product line includes proprietary formulations based
primarily on microbial fermentations and plant extracts, micronutrient
blends of primary and complexed secondary nutrients, natural humates and
other organic substances with growth promoting activity. Westbridge also
custom manufactures traditional and organic fertilizers.
As the world's population increases, our ability to site industrial and
agricultural production in proximity to population centers becomes an issue.
Development and delivery of clean water and control of emissions and
pollutants are now critical issues both in the United States and abroad.
Westbridge is at the forefront of emerging fields of environmental quality
and bioremediation, designing natural products to treat and deodorize
sewage, industrial wastewater, livestock and crop wastes.
For over twenty years, Westbridge has formulated and manufactured liquid
biological products.
A constant emphasis on quality assurance and customer service ensures that
all products meet customers specifications from concept to market.
