• Commodity chemicals (or bulk commodities or bulk chemicals) are a group of chemicals that are made on a very large scale to satisfy global markets.

Fine chemicals are complex, single, pure chemical substances, produced in limited quantities in multipurpose plants by multistep batch chemical or biotechnological processes.

• Speciality chemicals (also called specialties or effect chemicals) are particular chemical products which provide a wide variety of effects on which many other industry sectors rely.
• Some of the categories of speciality chemicals are adhesives, agrichemicals, cleaning materials, colors, cosmetic additives, construction chemicals, elastomers, flavors, food additives, fragrances, industrial gases, lubricants, paints, polymers, surfactants, and textile auxiliaries.
• Other industrial sectors such as automotive, aerospace, food, cosmetics, agriculture, manufacturing, and textiles are highly dependent on such products.

• The chemical industry comprises the companies that produce industrial chemicals.
• Central to the modern world economy, it converts raw materials (oil, natural gas, air, water, metals, and minerals) into more than 70,000 different products.
• The plastics industry contains some overlap, as most chemical companies produce plastic as well as other chemicals.

• An inorganic compound is typically a chemical compound that lacks carbon– hydrogen bonds, that is, a compound that is not an organic compound.

• Chemicals play an important role in the pharmaceutical industry.
• We partner with pharmaceutical industry to distribute, trade, market and merchandize their products, medical devices or pharmaceutical drugs 
• Check our healthcare section to learn more about it. 

• Converting excess renewable electricity into green hydrogen or electrofuels offers the potential to balance the fluctuations in supply and demand of electricity from renewable sources including wind and solar power.
• 1WEC works as a bridge between  major users of electricity, major producers of electricity and majors companies in electrochemistry within a partnership for renewable energy.
• The electrolysis of water, which yields hydrogen and oxygen, underpins the electrofuels concept.
• It, when combined with carbon dioxide, can produce methanol.
• In this way, the process serves as a carbon sink by effectively recycling carbon dioxide emissions.
• Our products also usher momentum on circular chemistry and green hydrogen.
• If we are serious about meeting carbon emission targets as set in the Paris agreement, then just adding electricity from wind and solar power is not enough; the complexity is in decarbonizing the entire product.
• Catalysts, electrochemical cells and reactors are needed for the conversion of carbon dioxide or hydrogen into energy-storage molecules such as methane, hydrocarbons, or alcohols.

• Biopolymers are natural polymers produced by the cells of living organisms.
• Synthetic biopolymers are human-made copies of biopolymers obtained by abiotic chemical routes. Synthetic biopolymer of different chemical nature we trade, including polysaccharides, glycoproteins, peptides and proteins, polyhydroxoalkanoates, polyisoprenes.
