Chemicals, ingredients and formulations

Selling chemicals, ingredients
or water treatment?
We've got you.

Speciality chemicals, ingredients and additives on one side. Water treatment chemistry, membranes and plants on the other. We find the makers and plants that use what you sell, the person who can approve a change, and prepare your rep before the trial.

If this is your week

Sound familiar?

  • ✓ A cosmetics maker on Monday, an adhesives plant on Wednesday, a water treatment contract on Friday. Same material, three different conversations.
  • ✓ Nothing is sold until a chemist runs a trial. Getting the sample approved is the real sale, and it takes months.
  • ✓ Price rarely blocks you. QC, regulatory and "we have always used the other grade" do.
  • ✓ Your senior rep knows who is reformulating this year. That knowledge leaves when they do.

Which makers

Makers whose formulations use your category, by end use: polymers and plastics, personal care, adhesives and sealants, paints and coatings, water treatment, intermediates.

Who inside

The formulation or R&D head, the plant head, QA and regulatory, sourcing. Ranked by who can approve a change to the recipe.

What to say first

A message about their new launch, their reformulation, their export registration, their capacity add. Not about your grade list.

Before the trial

A cited brief: what they launched, which claims they are chasing, what they are hiring for, what to avoid, which of your grades fits.

Chemicals & formulations

Selling speciality chemicals, ingredients, additives? We've got you.

We find the makers whose formulation uses your category, by end use, and the chemist who can get your sample a trial.

Who it finds

Formulation or R&D head, plant head, QA and regulatory, sourcing. Ranked by who can approve a change to the recipe.

What prepared means

New launches, reformulation hiring, export registrations, capacity added. Which of your grades fits, and what to avoid. Cited.

Chemicals & formulations

Selling water treatment chemistry, membranes, dosing, plants? We've got you.

We find the plants and utilities under pressure on water, effluent or discharge, and the utilities head who owns the problem.

Who it finds

Utilities or effluent plant head, EHS head, projects head for a new plant, the EPC contractor, purchase. Ranked by who decides a treatment change.

What prepared means

Discharge norms tightened, a notice from the regulator, a new plant or line, zero-liquid-discharge commitments. What to ask before quoting. Cited.

Why now, in your world
The signs a maker is about
to change a recipe
These are what the brief watches for, each with its source. Not a guess about intent.

A new launch or range

A new SKU means a new formulation, and a window where the ingredient list is still open.

A registration or certification

Export registrations, GMP, ISO, organic or halal claims. Each one forces a look at every input.

A new plant or line

Capacity announced, land taken, a line commissioned. Suppliers get chosen before the first batch.

Hiring a formulator

A job posting for a formulation chemist or an application lab head says reformulation is on the plan.

A norm tightened, a notice served

Discharge limits change, or a regulator issues a notice. The plant has to act, and has a budget to do it.

A supply problem

A competitor's plant shutdown, an import restriction, a price shock in a feedstock. The moment a second source gets a hearing.

Who it finds
The people who shape the decision

Head of R&D or formulation

Decides whether your sample gets a trial.

Plant or production head

Approves what changes on the line, and when.

QA and regulatory

Signs off the spec, the certificate of analysis and the compliance file.

Sourcing head

Negotiates once the chemist has said yes. Not before.

Utilities or effluent plant head

Owns the water, the effluent and the discharge number.

EHS head

Answers to the regulator, and sponsors the fix.

Empower the whole team

So the new rep answers the
chemist's question in the room

Technical data sheets, safety data, application notes, trial results, competitor grades. Your technical lead reviews and publishes them as battle cards and short lessons. The rep who joined in March answers like the one who has sold into that plant for ten years.

Your expert reviews and publishes. The model does not invent product facts.
