For Southeastern’s customers, the transition from working with Southeastern Chemical to working directly with Asterion, LLC will be  seamless, said Asterion President Blair Vandivier.  Doug Trageser, former president of Southeastern Chemical, has agreed to join Asterion, LLC as our Technical Sales Representative in the Southeastern U.S., and will continue to provide the highest levels of service. The acquisition will allow Asterion to provide a complete line of surface finishing technologies, commodity chemicals, and related equipment to businesses located in the Southeastern United States.
