Our History
Founded in 2001 by Noel Shahnazarian and John Maclean, Northspec has grown into one of the top chemical distributors in Canada specializing in supplying high-performance value-added resins, additives and pigments in the Construction, CASE, Plastics and Rubber and Jan-San industries.
A very successful and consistent track record since inception has resulted in Northspec growing to over 800 accounts, over 20 key suppliers and 9 warehouses across Canada.
Northspec Chemicals with its world class supplier partners, are now well entrenched at key accounts in new product development and product improvements (replacement cycle) as challenges such as VOC laws, new technologies, cost reduction and other environmental rules and regulations has resulted in major reformulation work and new opportunities.
