Hudson Technologies Appoints Kenneth Gaglione as Chairman, President, and CEO



WOODCLIFF LAKE, New Jersey  
Hudson Technologies, Inc. announced that its board of directors has appointed Kenneth Gaglione as chairman of the board, president, and chief executive officer, effective November 24, 2025.

Gaglione brings a wealth of experience in the refrigerants and specialty chemicals industries, along with a proven track record of operational excellence and strategic growth leadership. He previously served as vice president of operations at Hudson Technologies from 2020 through 2023 and subsequently acted as a consultant to the company. During his employment at the company, he successfully led multiple strategic production initiatives and advanced the company’s supply chain and planning capabilities. Gaglione also oversaw the company’s external services group, positioning that segment for sustained growth. Following his departure from Hudson, Gaglione also served as a consultant to a leading European private equity firm, evaluating opportunities in the refrigerant and HVAC industry.

Prior to joining Hudson in 2020, Mr. Gaglione served as global marketing director within Honeywell International’s advanced materials division, fluorine products business unit. In that role, he had oversight responsibility for the division’s aftermarket distribution, sales, business development, and the strategic planning for Honeywell’s HFO and legacy HFC refrigerant product lines for non-automotive, aftermarket applications. He was also a member of Honeywell’s intellectual property strategy team, contributing to IP portfolio development, opportunity identification, and acquisition integration. Earlier in his career, Gaglione held business development positions and technical marketing roles in the specialty chemicals sector serving the semiconductor and related markets with companies including Rohm and Haas and Ciba-Geigy.

“We are pleased to welcome Ken back to Hudson Technologies,” said Vincent Abbatecola, lead independent director of Hudson Technologies. “Our board is confident that his extensive operational experience, including product and market development with large multinationals, combined with his technical expertise and deep familiarity with both Hudson and the global HVAC industry, position him to lead the company into its next phase of growth.”
