Our journey began Years ago
Our Company High Chem has been committed to innovation in inorganics, solvents and other essential chemicals for more than 200 years. Our rich history dates back to 1814, when German chemist Johann Daniel Riedel successfully manufactured pharmaceutical products, providing a foundation for the chemicals industry. That pioneering spirit is guiding us as we grow, evolve and strive to become your trusted supplier of high-quality chemical products.

Nicole Williams
Company Director
"Profit in business comes from repeat customers; customers that boast about your product and service, and that bring friends with them."

Bjorn Gunnarson
Head of Design
"Loyal customers, they don’t just come back, they don’t simply recommend you, they insist that their friends do business with you."

Charlotte Banks
Research & Development
"You’ll never have a product or price advantage again. They can be easily duplicated, but a strong customer service culture can’t be copied."

Sam Gallagher
Customer Support
"Get closer than ever to your customers. So close that you tell them what they need well before they realize it themselves."
