Why Choose Van Horn Metz?

The wide variety of products we offer ranges from thickeners to resins, from surfactants to emulsions, from pigments to inhibitors and many more! Because we can supply this range of products, we become a "one-stop" buying experience. Our sales reps are technically knowledgable and experienced, and are able to help create solutions for formulation needs.
With stock in twelve regional warehouses, VHM is able to offer excellent lead time to our customers. If an order is placed before noon, we have the capability to ship it out the same day. In most cases this will have the material to our customers by the next business day. In addition, for the convenience of our customers, we have excellent relationships with many common carriers, and are able to negotiate reasonable freight rates, based on our shipping volumes.
