US-based Bleachtech LLC, a mem­ber com­pa­ny of the ANSA McAL Group, has ap­point­ed Craig La Croix as its new chief ex­ec­u­tive of­fi­cer, ef­fec­tive Ju­ly 1, 2026.

The cor­po­rate an­nounce­ment, dis­closed by ANSA McAL group chief ex­ec­u­tive Of­fi­cer An­tho­ny N Sab­ga III, sig­nals a strate­gic move to re­in­force the com­pa­ny’s mar­ket po­si­tion, dri­ve in­dus­try growth, and en­hance over­all gov­er­nance.

In his new role, La Croix would re­port di­rect­ly to the sec­tor head of util­i­ties.

La Croix steps in­to the ex­ec­u­tive lead­er­ship po­si­tion with a wealth of re­gion­al in­dus­tri­al ex­per­tise.

He brings more than 25 years of ex­pe­ri­ence as a me­chan­i­cal en­gi­neer, along­side an ex­ten­sive track record in cor­po­rate gov­er­nance and in­dus­try ad­vo­ca­cy.

Through­out his ca­reer, La Croix has held nu­mer­ous high-pro­file lead­er­ship roles, in­clud­ing serv­ing as di­rec­tor for Pen­ta, Abel Build­ing So­lu­tions, and TOM­CO.

His in­flu­ence ex­tends heav­i­ly in­to re­gion­al trade and reg­u­la­to­ry bod­ies. La Croix has served on the boards of the T&T Man­u­fac­tur­ers As­so­ci­a­tion and the T&T Con­trac­tors As­so­ci­a­tion (TTCA).

His tech­ni­cal ex­per­tise al­so led him to rep­re­sent the TTCA on the Na­tion­al Build­ing Code Com­mit­tee and the T&T Bu­reau of Stan­dards Clay Block Com­mit­tee.

Fur­ther­more, his re­gion­al port­fo­lio in­cludes past ser­vice as a di­rec­tor at Berg­er Paints Ja­maica Ltd.

Pri­or to join­ing Bleachtech LLC, La Croix served as the man­ag­ing di­rec­tor of ANSA Chem­i­cals.

In that role, he was cred­it­ed with play­ing a piv­otal part in sta­bil­is­ing the busi­ness, re­build­ing crit­i­cal tech­ni­cal ca­pa­bil­i­ties, and nav­i­gat­ing com­plex in­dus­tri­al projects.

ANSA McAL lead­er­ship high­light­ed his com­mit­ment to da­ta-dri­ven de­ci­sion-mak­ing, tal­ent de­vel­op­ment, and trans­paren­cy as foun­da­tion­al el­e­ments of his ex­ec­u­tive suc­cess.

The re­lease added that as Bleachtech LLC seeks to ad­vance its cur­rent strate­gic ob­jec­tives, com­pa­ny lead­er­ship ex­pressed strong con­fi­dence that La Croix’s back­ground would be in­stru­men­tal.

Ac­quired by ANSA McAL in 2024, Bleachtech LLC is a chem­i­cals com­pa­ny op­er­at­ing out of Ohio and Vir­ginia, spe­cial­is­ing in ad­vanced wa­ter treat­ment and san­i­ta­tion so­lu­tions.

Ac­cord­ing to its web­site, ANSA McAL said Bleachtech LLC brings decades of tech­ni­cal ex­per­tise to in­dus­tries and mu­nic­i­pal­i­ties, with a mis­sion root­ed in de­liv­er­ing clean, safe wa­ter through re­li­able, high-per­for­mance chem­i­cal so­lu­tions.
