ChemSpec Welcomes Bob Brandes - Southeast Key Accounts Specialist and Plastics Group Manager

Born and raised in New Jersey, Bob has been active in chemical distribution and plastics manufacturing since 1992 upon graduating from Bucknell University.  While Bob’s focus became all things PVC related, he has experience with many other thermoplastics, as well as CASE and Rubber applications. Bob has a strong knowledge of the plastics compounding environment and the value that the additives we offer bring to our customers’ processes and finished products.

Bob is excited to see his daughter, Emily, start college at Florida State University this Fall.  He will be covering the Southeast sales territory from his new home base in Florida as well, in addition to assisting the sales team throughout the East Coast and Midwest markets for our growing thermoplastics portfolio. 

In addition to his work, Bob has a passion for good food and can often be found in the kitchen trying a variety of new recipes and methods to share with family and friends.
