NORTH MOLY: Micronutrient
Solutions for Agriculture
and Industry.

Trusted manufacturing, consistent supply, and top
technical support born from over 100 years of trust.

NORTHMOLY BRANDED CHEMICALS

Founded in 1921, North has become a trusted supplier of molybdenum micronutrients for agronomy,
fertilizer blenders, and crop nutrition programs.

Our high-purity sodium molybdate supports nitrogen efficiency, soil health, and balanced micronutrient uptake.
With steady inventories and dependable logistics, we ensure growers and manufacturers get the molybdenum products they need each season.

Our founder, Dr H.B. North, was a chemist with a life-long minerology passion, which led him to the development of minerals with practical implications and uses. NorthMoly’s parent company – North Metal & Chemical Company – began in York, Pennsylvania for the manufacture of Tungstate and Molybdenum compounds, at a time when no Molybdenum was being mined in the United States. In the early days, great effort was put into importing this rare mineral in order to manufacture and distribute it on a small scale. Since the 1980’s, NorthMoly has grown into the largest manufacturer of Molybdenum in the United States.

NorthMoly is committed to stocking molybdenum products for regular users of every product. Even in times of plenty, we allocate material usage to ensure stock is available for every regular customer.  We aim to be the most dependable source of molybdenum products to all our customers.
