About Us
History
Established in 1999, The Rodel Foundations were created when Rodel Inc. was purchased by Rohm and Haas Company, a manufacturer of specialty chemicals headquartered in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Rodel Inc. was founded in Wilmington, Delaware, in 1969 and expanded with operations based in Arizona in 1973. The company has evolved into a global leader in precision surface technologies serving the semiconductor and other industries worldwide. As a way of giving back to the communities that have supported Rodel Inc.'s success, The Rodel Foundations are concentrating their initial philanthropic endeavors in Delaware and Arizona.
