Raw Materials Procurement

We depend on imports for a large portion of the raw materials we use in our products. We purchase from China, South Africa ,India ,Botswana and the Ukraine. Each ingredient and production location is carefully selected, reflecting our stance that top-quality products can only be made using top quality ingredients. Our raw material sourcing is central in Harare though we depend much for logistics from our South African office . Goods from Europe and India are shipped via the Durban port then inspected tested and stored at our warehouse in South Africa awaiting transportation by road to Harare . Raw materials from China and India arrive through the Beira port in Mozambique.

Production

The Company's fundamental policy is to set up production facilities close to where its products are consumed. Reflecting this policy, with this in mind, we are seeking the creation of new joint ventures around the country and region as part of our strategy to make our products affordable.

To fortify our product development and basic research capabilities, we intend to set up a Chemical Merchants Research Laboratory in South Africa, which will house a boiler water development Centre and fine chemicals.

Since we manufacture and sell our products internationally, it is essential that we develop, manufacture and distribute products that fully meet global standards for quality, so our customers' world-wide can use our products with peace of mind.

We are implementing new standards throughout our facilities. This has had a positive effect on our efforts to standardize other internal procedures, we earned official certification for the use of our products in food establishments. New laws were enacted in most countries of the world as part of the nations' environmental protection initiatives. We intend to develop our business while strictly adhering to domestic and international standards for products quality and environmental protection. To ensure our ability to supply our customers with quality, reliable, price-competitive products, we are organising our production, distribution and marketing systems in Southern Africa and beyond. Marketing and Distribution Due to growth of economy, industry, new building construction etc in Southern Africa in recent years, market demand for industrial water treatment chemicals have increased. Responding to this situation, we restructured and strengthened our national and internal operations to enhance our marketing and distribution capabilities to meet expanding commercial, residential and industrial demands.
