                               PART I

Item 1(a)  GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF BUSINESS

Incorporated in Connecticut in 1922, MacDermid, Incorporated and its 
subsidiaries (collectively, "MacDermid" or the "Corporation") develops, 
produces and markets a broad line of specialty chemical products which 
are used in the metal and plastic finishing and electronics industries.  
MacDermid offers a line of horizontal processing equipment used in the 
production of printed circuit boards and in chemical machining, through 
its wholly-owned subsidiary, MacDermid Equipment, Inc.  MacDermid also 
markets chemical supplies and equipment produced by others.

  In December 1995, MacDermid acquired the assets, subject to certain 
liabilities of the Electronics and Printing Division of Hercules 
Incorporated, forming a new wholly-owned subsidiary, MacDermid Imaging 
Technology, Inc., for that purpose.  The acquired business consists 
principally of the manufacture and sale of proprietary products 
including photoresists, used to imprint electrical pattern on circuit 
boards, and photopolymer printing, which reproduces quality graphics 
on package printing and in-store displays.  The acquisition, accounted 
for as a purchase transaction, was financed through bank borrowings and 
the issuance of preferred stock.

  In May 1995, the Corporation acquired certain assets of the Allied-
Kelite Company (a subsidiary of Witco Corporation), a major supplier of 
plating surface preparation proprietary chemical products to automotive, 
electronics hardware and other industries.  The business, located 
primarily in the United States includes licensing of technology to 
companies in several other countries.  The acquisition, accounted for as 
a purchase and financed through borrowings, complements the Corporation's 
existing metal finishing and electronics business and provides cost 
benefits from consolidation.

  On August 1, 1994, MacDermid acquired, for approximately $26 million, 
851,899 shares of its common stock (approximately 24% of the shares then 
outstanding) through a  "Dutch Auction" self-tender offer.  The self-
tender was financed by bank borrowings.

  For a description of the Corporation's business, see Item 1(c) on the 
following page.

Item 1(b)  FINANCIAL INFORMATION ABOUT INDUSTRY SEGMENTS

MacDermid has one primary industry segment which is the manufacture and 
sale of specialty chemicals used in finishing metals and non metallic 
surfaces and in the marketing of supplies and equipment related to the 
use of these chemicals.

  Item 1(c) of this Report provides information concerning MacDermid's 
classes of products and Item 1(d) of this report includes financial 
information concerning operations by geographic area and on a 
consolidated basis.  Additional information with respect to the one 
primary business is shown in the portions of MacDermid's 1996 Annual 
Report to Shareholders, included as Exhibit 13 to this Form 10-K, and 
is incorporated by reference.


                                                                  -3-

Item 1(c)  NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

  (i)  MacDermid produces and markets over 1,000 proprietary chemical 
compounds.  The proprietary chemical compounds are used for the following 
purposes: cleaning, activating and polishing, mechanical plating, 
mechanical galvanizing, electro-plating and phosphatizing metal surfaces, 
stripping of metal and final coating of metal surfaces, filtering, anti-
tarnishing and rust retarding and etching, imaging, deposition of metal 
and other chemical processes.  Research in connection with proprietary 
products is conducted principally in the United States, with additional 
research facilities in Israel and Japan.

  In North America, MacDermid markets its entire line of products in the 
United States through more than 100 sales and service personnel employed 
by it and, in certain areas of the United States, through distributors 
and manufacturing representatives.  The Corporation maintains inventories 
at distribution points throughout the United States which typically 
are leased or rented.  In Canada the Corporation both manufactures and 
markets certain of its products through MacDermid Chemicals, Inc.

  In Europe, the Corporation markets its proprietary products through 
wholly owned subsidiaries.  European sales are made from inventory stock 
through approximately 45 sales and service representatives who are 
employed by the Corporation's subsidiaries located in France, Germany, 
Great Britain, Italy, Holland, Spain and Switzerland.  MacDermid owns 
and operates manufacturing facilities in Spain and Great Britain.  

  In the Asia/Pacific area, the Corporation markets its proprietary 
products through wholly owned subsidiaries in Australia, Hong Kong, 
Japan, Korea, New Zealand, Singapore, and Taiwan, and sales are made 
through more than 30 sales and service representatives who are employed 
by local subsidiaries.  In addition, sales are made in China, Thailand, 
Malaysia and The Philippines directly or through distributors.  MacDermid 
owns and operates manufacturing facilities in Australia and Taiwan.  

  In certain other foreign markets, MacDermid manufactures and sells 
certain of its proprietary chemicals and conducts research through 
wholly or majority owned subsidiaries.  In certain countries in South 
America, Europe and Asia, MacDermid products are sold through 
distributors or manufactured and sold through licensees.  

  Chemicals, supplies and equipment manufactured by others and resold by 
MacDermid consist of basic chemicals, automatic plating conveyors, barrel 
plating and pollution control equipment, rectifiers, pumps and filters.  
Resale items are marketed primarily in conjunction with and as an aid to 
the sale of proprietary chemicals.

  MacDermid's principal products fall into the three following classes:

   (A)  Chemical compounds produced by MacDermid, most of
        which are the result of the Corporation's own research
        and development and, therefore, are referred to as
        proprietary products;





                                                                  -4-

   (B)  Resale chemicals and supplies; and

   (C)  Equipment, substantially all of which is manufactured
        by others and marketed by the Corporation.

  The following table sets forth the classes of MacDermid's products and 
the respective percentage of total consolidated revenue for each of the 
last three fiscal years:

  Class of Products                1996      1995      1994

  Proprietary Chemicals             88%       90%       87%

  Resale Chemicals
    and Supplies                     6         7         9

  Equipment                          6         3         4


  (ii)  MacDermid has not made a public announcement of, nor has 
information otherwise become public about, a new product or line of 
business requiring investment of a material amount of assets or which 
otherwise is material.

  (iii)  MacDermid uses in excess of 700 chemicals as raw materials in 
the manufacture of its proprietary products.  With few exceptions, 
several domestic sources of supply are available for all such raw 
materials and for resale chemicals, supplies and equipment.  During 
fiscal 1996, there were no significant difficulties in obtaining raw 
materials essential to its business.

  (iv)  During fiscal 1996, approximately 20% of MacDermid's proprietary 
sales were derived from products covered by patents owned by the 
Corporation or produced under patent license agreements.  MacDermid owns 
more than 70 unexpired U.S. Patents, for which corresponding patents have 
been obtained or are pending in most industrialized nations, and has more 
than 20 patent applications pending in the U.S.  The patents owned by 
Registrant are important to its business and have varying remaining lives.

  Although certain of MacDermid's patents are increasingly more important 
to its business, it believes that its ability to provide technical and 
testing services to its customers and to meet the rapid delivery 
requirements of its customers is equally, if not more, important.  In 
addition, MacDermid has many proprietary products which are not covered 
by patents and which make a large contribution to its total sales.  
Further, the Corporation owns a number of domestic and foreign trade 
names and trademarks which it considers to be of value in identifying 
MacDermid and its products.  MacDermid neither holds nor has granted any 
franchises or concessions.

  (v)  No material portion of MacDermid's business is seasonal.







                                                                  -5-

  (vi)  It is necessary to maintain finished goods inventory at locations 
throughout the United States and in the foreign countries in which the 
Corporation operates so that it may meet the rapid delivery requirements 
of its customers.  This impacts working capital requirements by requiring 
a considerable investment in inventories to service its customers.  
Customer payment terms, which vary by country, are generally in accord 
with local industry practice.

  (vii)  No major portion of MacDermid's business is dependent upon a 
single customer or a few customers, the loss of whom would have a 
materially adverse effect on its business.

  (viii)  Since products are taken from inventory stock to ship against 
current orders, there is essentially no backlog of orders for MacDermid's 
proprietary chemical products.  MacDermid does not consider the absence 
of a backlog to be significant.

  (ix)  No material portion of MacDermid's business is subject to 
renegotiation of profits or termination of contracts or subcontracts at 
the election of the Government.

  (x)  The Corporation provides a broad line of proprietary chemical 
compounds and supporting services.  MacDermid has many competitors, 
estimated to be in excess of 100 in some proprietary product areas.  
Some large competitors operate globally, as does MacDermid, but most 
operate locally or regionally.  To the best of the Corporation's 
knowledge no single competitor competes with all its proprietary 
products.  MacDermid maintains extensive supporting technical and 
testing services for its customers, and is continuously developing new 
products.  Management believes that the Corporation's combined abilities 
to manufacture, sell, service and develop new products and applications 
enables it to compete successfully both locally and world-wide.

  (xi)  MacDermid spent approximately $10,042,000, $9,644,000 and 
$6,687,000 during fiscal years 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively, on 
research and development activities.  Substantially all research and 
development activities were sponsored by the Corporation, the greater 
percentage of which related to the development of new products.

  (xii) For many years, MacDermid has developed proprietary products 
designed to reduce the discharge of pollutant materials into the 
environment and eliminate the use  of certain targeted raw materials 
while enhancing the efficiency of customer chemical processes.  For 
this reason, efforts to comply with Federal, State and local provisions, 
which have been enacted or adopted regulating the discharge of materials 
into the environment, may have had a positive effect upon the 
Corporation's competitive position.  Capital expenditures of 
approximately $4.3  million were made in fiscal 1996 and an estimated $1 
million will be spent for environmental control facilities in fiscal 1997.  
Though difficult to predict, future spending for this purpose is likely to 
average more than 10% of the capital budget.

  (xiii)  MacDermid employed 1,083 and 828 full time, regular employees 
as of March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.




                                                                  -6-

Item 1(d)  FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC OPERATIONS

MacDermid's 1996 Annual Report to Shareholders, included as Exhibit 13 to 
this Form 10-K and incorporated by reference, provides information with 
respect to the Corporation's geographic segments including operating 
information and the effect upon shareholder's equity of the translation 
of foreign currency financial statements.


Item 2  PROPERTIES

In the United States, MacDermid owns the following properties:

In Waterbury, Connecticut, a 51,700 square foot building, principally 
used for executive offices, marketing and corporate support, and a 
62,000 square foot research and customer service  facility, both of 
which are located on a 5.8 acre tract.  In addition, a 180,000 square 
foot wood brick and concrete building complex is principally used for 
manufacturing and warehousing but also includes some offices and 
laboratories.  The complex is located on a 7.2 acre tract.  Directly 
across a street from this property, a 31 acre tract of land is held 
for possible future development.

In Middletown, Delaware, a concrete and steel building of 97,000 square 
feet consisting of factory, laboratory, warehouse and office facilities
located on a 10.97 acre tract.

In Wilmington, Delaware, a concrete and steel building of 26,520 square
feet used principally as a technical and administrative services center 
located on a 3.8 acre tract.  Also on this site is an 18,000 square foot 
concrete and steel building which may be used for manufacturing expansion.

In Ferndale, Michigan, a steel frame and steel sided building of 75,000
square feet consisting principally of factory, warehouse and office
facilities, located on a 6.25 acre tract.

In Blue Ash, Ohio, a steel and brick single story building of 16,350 square 
feet consisting of a warehouse and offices located on a 2.75 acre tract.

In New Hudson, Michigan, a steel and brick single story building of 15,000 
square feet consisting of research laboratories and offices located on a 7 
acre tract.

The Corporation also owns properties in Vernon, Connecticut, and Leominster, 
Massachusetts, which are being held for sale or lease but which could be 
used for manufacturing should the need arise.

Outside the United States, the Corporation owns additional properties as 
follows:

At Barcelona, Spain, 31,000 square feet of factory, warehouse, laboratory 
and office space.

At Telford, England, two brick, concrete and steel buildings, connected 
by a walkway, containing a total of 43,000 square feet of manufacturing, 
warehouse, laboratory and office space.


                                                                  -7-

At Hsin Chu, Taiwan, Republic of China, two buildings of reinforced 
concrete totaling 30,000 square feet, located on a 1.8 acre tract, used 
for factory, warehouse and offices.

At Hong Kong, 31,000 square feet of office, laboratory and warehouse space 
in a concrete block building.

In addition, MacDermid leases office, laboratory, warehouse and 
manufacturing facilities as needed.  During the year, such additional 
facilities were leased in Minnesota, Vermont, Canada, Holland, Hong 
Kong, Israel, Japan, Singapore and several other foreign countries.  
All owned and leased facilities are in good condition and are of 
adequate size for present business volume.


Item 3   Legal Proceedings

There are no pending legal proceedings to which the Corporation or its 
subsidiaries is a party which, in the opinion of Management, would 
materially affect the Corporation's consolidated financial position, 
results of operations or cash flow.

  The Corporation is subject to the usual reviews and inspections by 
environmental agencies of the various states in which the Corporation 
has facilities and the Corporation has entered into agreements and 
consent decrees at various times in connection with such reviews.  On 
two occasions the Corporation also has been identified as a potentially 
responsible party ("PRP") by the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency 
in connection with its investigation of certain waste disposal sites.  
In both such instances the Corporation's involvement has been de minimis 
(less than 0.3%).  The Corporation has recorded its best estimate of 
liabilities in connection with site clean-up based upon the extent of 
its involvement, the number and financial resources of other PRPs and 
estimates of the total costs of the site clean-up.  Management believes 
that the recorded liabilities are reasonable estimates of probable 
liability and that future cash outlays are unlikely to be material to 
the future financial condition of the Corporation.


Item 4  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

There were no matters submitted to a vote of the Corporation's security 
holders during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996.















                                                                  -8-

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS


The Board of Directors
MacDermid, Incorporated:

Under date of May 22, 1996, we reported on the consolidated balance 
sheets of MacDermid, Incorporated and subsidiaries as of March 31, 
1996 and 1995, and the related consolidated statements of earnings 
and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended 
March 31, 1996, as contained in the 1996 annual report to shareholders.  
These consolidated financial statements and our report thereon are 
incorporated by reference in the annual report on Form 10-K for the 
year 1996.  In connection with our audits of the aforementioned 
consolidated financial statements, we also audited the related 
financial statement schedule as listed in the accompanying index 
under Item 14(a)(2).  This financial statement schedule is the 
responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is 
to express an opinion on this financial statement schedule based 
on our audits.

In our opinion, such schedule, when considered in relation to the 
basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents 
fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.
