ENGLEWOOD, Colo., Sept. 15, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Innospec Inc. (NASDAQ:IOSP) is proud to be associated with the Pentagon Federal Credit Union Foundation (PenFed Foundation) Military Heroes® Fund, which provides emergency financial assistance to wounded service members and veterans from all wars, including those in Iraq and Afghanistan.
