Welcome to Cal-Chem Corporation’s Website

Since 1965, Cal-Chem Corporation has provided the highest quality services in the industry including; precision cleaning, component cleaning and oxygen cleaning.  Cal-Chem Corporation’s cleaning processes are performed utilizing various methods, depending on the type and amount of contamination on the parts and the required level of cleanliness needed for the particular type of service.  Parts required to meet the most stringent cleanliness criteria are cleaned in one of our environmentally controlled cleanrooms.

The methods are typically defined by the Facility, the Engineer or the Industry the client is in as each client or industry may have their own surface cleanliness requirements for the specific project.

If setting the benchmark for quality, service, professionalism and innovation was the goal, Cal-Chem Corporation, THE Precision Cleaning and Passivation Industry Leader, achieved it years ago.  In 1965 Ken Balmer opened the first Cal-Chem Corporation office in South El Monte, California, which to this day is still the location of our Home Office.  Since then, Cal-Chem has grown into a nationwide company with offices throughout the country and Puerto Rico, that is known for its attention to detail and its award winning quality and service.

The following sections comprise the backbone of Cal-Chem’s Award Winning Quality and Service:

Quality-Our clients receive consistent quality on every project we execute, no matter the size.  This happens day in and day out because of Cal-Chem’s commitment to hiring the best employees, putting them through the best training and retaining them. 

Experience-Our Project Manager Core has an average of 15 years experience in the industry.  We hold our team to the highest standards, doing all we possibly can on each project, and then doing a little more.  Our attention to detail is second to none and all of our team members are self motivated and take pride in their work.

Response Rate-With offices across the United States, Cal-Chem can typically be at a project location anywhere in the country within 24 hours.  All of our offices are equipped to be able to handle cleaning of spool pieces, valves, etc and most have clean rooms for your oxygen cleaning needs.

Client Report Card Submission-Ask us for our letters of recommendation and praise.  After the completion of each project we ask our clients to fill out a report card on our quality and service.  We use these as another tool to keep Cal-Chem Corporation continually striving for perfection.

Cal-Chem Stands Behind Its Service-If for whatever reason, our client feels we did not come though on any part of our promise of Award Winning Quality and Service, we make it right, no matter what. 

Low Cost-Unlike our competition, we don’t have many executives “running” the company.  This increases the overhead and increases costs of services to the client.  Our business model keeps bureaucracy to a minimum, thus keeping Cal-Chem’s overhead low and we pass the savings onto our clients.  You can also feel comfortable knowing that once we are awarded the project you won’t have to worry about a chain of change orders flooding your desk.  We have the best estimating team in the industry and our price is firm.  Unwarranted change orders are a disservice to you, our valued client.
