PSSI is founded in Mt. Pleasant, Iowa, by Tom Turner and John Wright. His first plant in Joslin, Illinois, is still one of our customers today.
PSSI merges with Chemidyne Corporation after Tom’s close friend, Warren Dusenbury, sees potential in the business and buys him out. Warren also brought Royal Chemical under the Chemidyne Corporation umbrella, and ran all three companies successfully until 1988.
