Cleanup Status
Note: The EPA is the lead agency for managing cleanups at this facility.
EPA/state will visit the facility and meet with company representatives on an upcoming date. EPA/state is reviewing existing environmental information to determine if further investigation is required. EPA/State will focus first on the health and groundwater impacts, if any, presented by the facility. Once EPA/state completes this review process, an environmental indicator determination will be prepared and posted to this website.
On September 27, 2023, EPA determined the Corrective Action Migration of Contaminated Groundwater was under Control.
Cleanup Actions or environmental indicators characterizing the entire facility are shown below. It is not intended as an extensive list of milestones/activities. This listing, and all the data on this page, come from EPA’s RCRAInfo and are refreshed nightly to this page. For this table and the Cleanup Activities Pertaining to a Portion of the Facility table that follows, a blank in the Status column could mean the action either has not occurred or has not been reported in RCRAInfo.

Facility Description
Link to a larger, interactive view of the map.
Spray Products Corporation (Spray Products or Facility) is located at 1323 Conshohocken Road, Plymouth Meeting, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. The Facility is approximately 7.25 acres, contains two masonry and steel buildings (the north and south buildings), an outdoor AST farm, and product storage areas. A rail spur separates the north and south buildings. The Facility is within an industrial area and the future use of the property is anticipated to remain nonresidential.
Historically, the Facility was used as the Penn Central Railroad rail yard. In December 1973 Spray Products purchased the property and began operations which included storing and packaging aerosol products (paints, brake fluid, carburetor cleaners, staring fluid, and penetrants). In 2001, the current owner ORB Acquisition Group, Inc (ORB), purchased the Facility and continues similar operations under the name of Spray Products Corporation
Contaminants at this Facility
Environmental evaluations of the Facility were initiated in 1989. Since that time characterization activities have identified several releases of hazardous substances and reported chlorinated volatile organic compounds (CVOCs), heptane, and petroleum hydrocarbons in soil and groundwater beneath the property. Remedial work to address contaminant source areas has included characterizing the extent of contaminants in groundwater and source removal by soil excavation beneath the underground storage tank (UST) tank farm and in areas where recent heptane releases were identified. The most recent soil and groundwater analytical data available for review is presented in the Remedial Investigation Report & Cleanup Plan (RIR/CP), dated September 5, 2018, prepared by Stantec Consulting Services Inc.
Institutional and Engineering Controls at this Facility
The need for Institutional Controls is yet to be determined.
Institutional and Engineering Controls help ensure human exposure and groundwater migration are under control at a cleanup facility. Where control types have been reported by states and EPA in EPA’s RCRAInfo, they are shown below. Not all control types are needed at all facilities, and some facilities do not require any controls. Where there are blanks, the control types may not be needed, may not be in place, or may not be reported in RCRAInfo.
