For about 2 years now, Jessica has been a great asset to ARP Materials. You may even recognize her name because, as an intricate part of our customer service team, she's been assisting her customers with all quotes, orders and questions!
ARP is a small, family-owned company and this is one of the reasons Jessica really likes working here! With a family atmosphere and the ability to assist other departments when needed, it allows her (and all of us!) to have experience in all aspects of the company. It's a welcomed challenge!
Jessica moved from South Carolina to Colorado before returning to Western NY where she grew up. Grateful for her big family and a great group of friends here, she enjoys spending time with them all - when she's not playing softball, of course!

FEATURED SUPPLIER OF THE MONTH

The Dupps Company
For eighty years, the Dupps Company has been the worldwide leader in providing high-quality rendering equipment and service to the animal byproducts and protein recycling industry.
Today, they apply their capability and experience to include process systems and service to industries that are key to the sustainability of our environment and our world.
One of their many products, Harmonite, is a unique, high value-added organic-inorganic composite powder used as a base ingredient and process aid. The unique combination of particle size, surface characteristics, and composite organic/inorganic matrix make Harmonite a versatile, multi-functional, operation-friendly base compound or performance additive that can:
- Improve current formulations by increasing tack, viscosity, hardness, durability, and shortening cure times depending on application.
- Reduce or eliminate the consumption of higher cost formulation ingredients such as plasticizers, tackifier resins, aromatic oils, titanium dioxide, powdered coal, hard clay, petroleum pitch, and Gilsonite®
- Dramatically reduce mixing time — up to 50% in some cases — with up to 36% lower power consumption during production.
We are proud to partner with The Dupps Company to bring you a powerful, multi-functional process aid at a very attractive cost.
