Building the Backbone of Space Access
Since 2009, Meridian Propellant Co. has been the trusted fuel partner for commercial launch providers, defense agencies, and research institutions worldwide.
Our Story
Meridian Propellant Co. was founded by a team of chemical engineers and aerospace logistics veterans who saw a critical gap in the launch services market: reliable, ultra-pure propellant delivered on schedule, every time.
What began as a single refinery operation in Mojave, California, has grown into a global supply network with facilities on four continents, a fleet of 80+ cryo-transport vehicles, and strategic partnerships with every major spaceport on Earth.
Our mission is simple — ensure that no launch is ever delayed by fuel. We achieve this through relentless quality control, supply chain redundancy, and a deep understanding of what our clients need at T-minus zero.
