PART I

As used in this Report, the term "Quaker," unless the context otherwise
requires, means Quaker Chemical Corporation, its subsidiaries, and associated
companies.

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
--------

General Description
- -------------------

Quaker develops, produces, and markets a broad range of formulated
chemical specialty products for various heavy industrial, institutional, and
manufacturing applications. Quaker's principal products include: (i) rolling
lubricants (used by manufacturers of steel in the hot and cold rolling of
steel); (ii) corrosion preventives (used by steel and metalworking customers
to protect metal during manufacture, storage, and shipment); (iii) metal
finishing compounds (used to prepare metal surfaces for special treatments
such as galvanizing and tin plating and to prepare metal for further
processing); (iv) machining and grinding compounds (used by metalworking
customers in cutting, shaping, and grinding metal parts which require special
treatment to enable them to tolerate the manufacturing process); (v) forming
compounds (used to facilitate the drawing and extrusion of metal products);
(vi) paper production products (used as defoamers, release agents, softeners,
debonders, and dispersants); (vii) hydraulic fluids (used by steel,
metalworking, and other customers to operate hydraulically activated
equipment); (viii) products for the removal of hydrogen sulfide in various
industrial applications. During 1993, Quaker developed programs to provide
recycling and chemical management services.

In 1994, Quaker entered into an agreement for the creation of a
joint venture which is expected to enhance the Total Fluid Management (TFM)
service capabilities of Quaker. An initial cash investment of
approximately $3,000,000 has been made with additional investments expected
based on the growth of the venture.

Other specialty products and services are produced and marketed by
Quaker's domestic subsidiaries. AC Products, Inc., Quaker Construction
Products, Inc., QSC Products, Ltd., and Multi-Chemical Products, Inc.
manufacture and/or sell sealants and coatings for aerospace, construction, and
industrial use. Selby, Battersby & Co. manufactures and sells trowel-applied
flooring systems which derive their specialty characteristics from the
different resins used and the methods of their application.

During the third quarter 1992, as part of a plan to exit from the
petroleum production chemicals market, Quaker entered into an agreement to
sell certain of its petroleum production chemical operations assets, the
principal component of which is technology used in the removal of hydrogen
sulfide and organic sulfides from liquid and gaseous streams, embodied in the
SULFA-SCRUB(R) product series. This transaction was consummated in 1993.
Quaker acquired in May 1993 a French producer of metalworking fluids at a
price of approximately French Francs 53,000,000 (approximately US
$10,700,000), to reinforce Quaker's existing metalworking operations in
Europe.

2



Substantially all of Quaker's sales worldwide are made directly through
its own sales forces. Quaker salesmen visit the plants of customers regularly
and through training and experience identify production needs which can be
resolved or alleviated either by adapting Quaker's existing products or by new
formulations developed in Quaker's laboratories. Salesmen may call upon
Quaker's regional managers, product managers, and members of its laboratory
staff for assistance in obtaining and setting up product tests and evaluating
the results of such tests. In 1993, certain products were also sold in
Canada, Korea, India, and Argentina by exclusive licensees under long-term
royalty agreements.

Generally, separate manufacturing facilities of a single customer are
served by different salesmen.

Competition
- -----------

The chemical specialty industry is composed of a number of companies of
similar size as well as companies larger and smaller than Quaker. Quaker
cannot readily determine its precise position in the industry. Many
competitors are in fewer and more specialized product classifications or
provide different levels of technical services in terms of specific
formulations for individual customers. Competition in the industry is based
primarily on the ability to provide products which meet the needs of the
customer and render technical services and laboratory assistance to customers
and, to a lesser extent, on price.

Major Customers
- ---------------

During 1993, Quaker's five largest customers (each composed of multiple
subsidiaries or divisions with semi-autonomous purchasing authority) accounted
for approximately 16% of its consolidated net sales with the largest of these
customers accounting for approximately 4% of consolidated net sales. No one
subsidiary or division of these five customers accounted for more than 3% of
consolidated net sales. During the same period, approximately 46% of
consolidated net sales were made to customers engaged in the manufacture of
cold-rolled steel.

Raw Materials
- -------------

Quaker uses over 500 raw materials, including mineral oils, fats and fat
derivatives, ethylene derivatives, solvents, surface active agents,
chlorinated paraffinic compounds, and a wide variety of organic and inorganic
compounds. In 1993, only one raw material accounted for as much as 11% of the
total cost of Quaker's raw material purchases. Quaker has multiple sources of
supply for most materials, and Management believes that the failure of any
single supplier would not have a material adverse effect upon its business.

3



Patents and Trademarks
- ----------------------

Quaker has a limited number of patents and patent applications,
including patents issued, applied for, or acquired in the United States and in
various foreign countries, some of which may prove to be material to its
business. Principal reliance is placed upon Quaker's proprietary formulae and
the application of its skills and experience to meet customer needs. Quaker's
products are identified by trademarks which are registered throughout its
marketing area. Quaker makes little use of advertising but relies heavily
upon its reputation in the markets which it serves.

Research and Development -- Laboratories
- ----------------------------------------

Quaker's research and development laboratories support its sales
organization. Accordingly, the activities of Quaker's laboratory staff are
directed primarily toward applied research and development since the nature of
Quaker's business requires continuing modification and improvement of
formulations to provide chemical specialties to satisfy customer requirements.

Quaker maintains quality control laboratory facilities in each of its
manufacturing locations. In addition, Quaker maintains in Conshohocken,
Pennsylvania, laboratory facilities which are devoted primarily to applied
research and development.

Most of Quaker's affiliates also have research and development facilities.
Although not as complete as the Conshohocken laboratories, these facilities
are generally sufficient for the requirements of the customers being served.
If problems are encountered which cannot be resolved by local research and
development facilities, such problems are referred to the Conshohocken
laboratory staff.

Approximately 195 persons, of whom 98 have B.S. degrees and 44 have B.S.
and advanced degrees, are employed in Quaker's laboratories.

Number of Employees
- -------------------

On December 31, 1993, Quaker had 1,006 full-time employees, of whom 369
were employed by the parent company, 548 were employed by its international
subsidiaries and associates, and 89 were employed by all domestic
subsidiaries.

Product Classification
- ----------------------

Incorporated by reference is the information concerning product
classification by markets served appearing under the caption "Supplemental
Financial Information" on page 27 of the Registrant's

1993 Annual Report to Shareholders, the incorporated portions of which are
included as Exhibit 13 to this Report.

International Activities
- ------------------------

Incorporated by reference is the information concerning international
activities appearing in Note 9 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
and under the caption "General" of the Operations section of Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations which
appear on pages 30 and 31, respectively, of the Registrant's 1993 Annual
Report to Shareholders, the incorporated portions of which are included as
Exhibit 13 to this Report.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.
----------

Quaker's principal facilities in the United States are located in
Conshohocken, Pennsylvania and Detroit, Michigan. Quaker also owns a
non-operating facility in Pomona, California. Quaker's international
subsidiaries own facilities in Woodchester, England; Uithoorn, The
Netherlands; Verona, Italy; Villeneuve, France; Santa Perpetua de Mogoda,
Spain; and Seven Hills, N.S.W., Australia. Quaker Construction Products, Inc.
has a manufacturing facility in Sapulpa, Oklahoma that also serves QSC
Products, Ltd. and Selby, Battersby & Co. All of these facilities are owned
mortgage free. Financing for the Corporate Technical Center in Conshohocken,
Pennsylvania was arranged through the use of industrial revenue and
development bonds with an outstanding balance at December 31, 1993 of
$5,000,000.

Quaker's aforementioned facilities consist of various manufacturing,
administrative, warehouse, and laboratory buildings. Substantially all of the
buildings are of fire-resistant construction and are equipped with sprinkler
systems. All facilities are primarily of masonry and/or steel construction
and are adequate and suitable for Quaker's present operations. The Company
has a program to identify needed capital improvements which will be
implemented as Management considers necessary or desirable. Most locations
have various numbers of raw material storage tanks ranging from six to 63
having a capacity from 500 to 80,000 gallons each and processing or
manufacturing vessels ranging in capacity from 50 to 12,000 gallons each.

In order to facilitate compliance with applicable federal, state, and
local statutes and regulations relating to occupational health and safety and
protection of the environment, the Company has implemented a program of site
assessment, currently directed primarily to facilities in the United States
for the purpose of identifying capital expenditures or other actions that may
be necessary to comply with such requirements. The program includes periodic
inspections of each facility in the United States by Quaker and/or independent
environmental experts, as well as ongoing inspections by on-site personnel.
Such inspections are addressed

5



to operational matters, record keeping, reporting requirements, and
capital improvements. In 1993, capital expenditures directed solely or
primarily to regulatory compliance amounted to approximately
$1,000,000.

Quaker's executive offices are located in a four-story building containing
a total of approximately 47,000 square feet. A corporate technical center
containing approximately 28,700 square feet houses the laboratory facility.
Both of these facilities are adjacent to Quaker's manufacturing facility in
Conshohocken.

Multi-Chemical Products, Inc. has a ten-year lease on its facility in
Fontana, California which expires in 2001. AC Products, Inc. has a ten-year
lease on its facility in Placentia, California that expires in 1997.

Quaker's Mexican associate (40% owned) owns a plant in Monterrey, Mexico.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
-----------------

The Company is a party to proceedings, cases, and requests for information
from, and negotiations with, various claimants and federal and state agencies
relating to various matters including environmental matters, none of which are
expected to result in monetary sanctions in any amount or in awards that would
have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition.
Reference is made to Note 11 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
which appears on page 26 in the Registrant's 1993 Annual Report to
Shareholders, the incorporated portions of which are included as Exhibit 13 to
this report, for information concerning pending asbestos-related cases against
a subsidiary.
