CECON History
In 1985, six retired Du Pont scientists and engineers started The CECON Group, Inc. They immediately found a huge demand for their technical expertise and experience. In the course of their consulting, they also found a huge demand for technical experts outside their own skill areas. Thus, the CECON consulting network began finding the exact experts who can specifically address clients’ technical problems and needs. Today the CECON consultant family is still growing, with more technical experts added each month to our data base.
CECON's original roots were in chemistry, polymers, chemical engineering, materials technology, and related fabricated products. Today, CECON represents a vast array of world class scientific and engineering experts in many disciplines that serve global clients in all areas of science and technology.
