What is Chemical Mixing?
Chemical mixing, also called toll mixing, is a critical process used in various industries, such as pharmaceutical, cosmetic, food, mineral, and plastic. It can include batch mixing, dry chemical blending, emulsification, particle size reduction, paste mixing, and homogenisation in order to achieve your desired custom blend.
Our Bespoke Chemical Mixing Process
Because we’ve been manufacturing chemicals since 1977, we are equipped to handle any chemical mix your business may require. From corrosive acid to flammable liquid, we have an extensive range of chemicals and equipment to create the perfect formula for you.
Formulation
We work with you to create custom formulations and mixing solutions that meet your exact specifications. These are filtered down to as little as 0.2 micron to ensure maximum quality. We also conduct a range of rigorous chemical analysis tests to ensure regulatory compliance and quality standards.
Blending
We offer a range of chemical blending services, including pre- and post-treatment of blends, power blending and blends at elevated temperatures. Our high viscosity blenders also allow us to blend substances up to a viscosity of approximately 50,000cP, so whether you need antifreeze or caulking compound, we’ve got you covered.
Filling and capping
We have a specialist range of chemical bottling equipment, including gravity-fed filling stations, pump-fed bottle filling equipment, semi-automatic filling machines and volumetric filling equipment. Our high-quality filling and capping machines allow us to cater to a range of sizes and quantities, from small 1ml ampoules to 1L HDPE screw cap bottles to 1000L IBCs.
Labelling
Our customisable labelling service means we can supply your products in fully-branded packaging so that they’re ready to go. You can either supply us with your own design, or we can create a bespoke label for you with all your company’s details. We also use durable laser print polyethylene to make our labels, guaranteeing the best quality for every bottle.
Dispatch
We use ADR-registered couriers to ensure the safe transport of your chemicals to anywhere in the world, including directly to your customers. We also offer delivery tracking services so that you can follow the progress of your order.
