Harvey to its Board of Directors. Mr. Harvey brings over 40 years of chemical/materials industry experience to the Company and will help drive CCI’s efforts beyond its core oil & gas end-markets.

Nick Gardiner, President of Clean Chemistry, said, "As we establish a meaningful presence in industries outside of oil and gas, we look forward to Bill's contribution to those efforts. Along with his general chemical leadership track record, Bill’s experience with commercializing new products in various industries will be invaluable and we are thrilled to have him join the Clean Chemistry team.”

Harvey has an extensive career in sales, marketing, product development, management, and executive level leadership roles.
