The Keys to Success
 

At QUALITY CHEMICALS, we are aware of the importance of the human factor; that is why we have brought together the chemical products sector’s top professionals. A team with wealth of experience and in permanent training to guarantee the maximum quality of all the products that we produce and market under the Qemical brand name.
 
 
Company Origins
 

QUALITY CHEMICALS is a private company that has been founded recently, but that brings together the knowledge and technology of over sixty years manufacturing fine chemical products and analytical reagents. This is because our experience comes from the first company founded in Spain as a manufacturer of fine chemical products for industry, along with high purity reagents for laboratory use. It was later taken over by one of the chemical-pharmaceutical sector’s largest and best-known multinational companies, which contributed to an international vision of the business. QUALITY CHEMICALS was created in 1997 as a spin-off of that multinational.

Our recently built facilities contain our production plant, control and R&D laboratories, warehouses, and offices.
 
 
Facilities
 

The QUALITY CHEMICALS facilities are designed essentially for the following purposes:

  • Chemical synthesis, singularly of inorganic products.
  • Distillation of a great variety of chemical products.
  • Control and analysis of processes.

Our production facilities boast:

  • Versatility, which allows us to manufacture many different types of products (Multi-purpose plant).
  • Different reaction capacities. (From kilos to tonnes).
  • Target products: salts, acids, solvents, synthesis intermediates, ready-to-use products, etc.
  • Equipment: stainless and enamelled reactors, distillation columns, dryers and all the tools suited to specific needs.
  • Quality Management based on fulfilment of SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures). This system ensures the traceability of the product throughout the manufacturing process.

In the production units, everything is important and influences good general functioning, therefore our warehouses are optimised to the maximum, allowing us to speed up processes and give our customers a better service.

Special tanks and palletised shelves facilitate the warehousing of our products and the reception of raw materials, with maximum efficiency and control.
 
 
Logistics
 

The company’s warehouses are to be found at the Esparraguera factory, near Barcelona. All goods are shipped from here to the different markets where the company is active. The company’s proximity to the El Prat airport and the Port of Barcelona, and its excellent situation in terms of good road access, ensure timely and secure delivery of goods.

Moreover, the broad experience of QUALITY CHEMICALS in preparing goods for transport ensures that all the correct procedures will be carried out:

  • Containers suitable for maintaining purity and security of the product.
  • Labelling in accordance with the norms in force.
  • Secure and environmentally friendly packaging.

In addition, the company’s main criterion is to work very close to its customers in order to meet their requirements. In this sense, we are completely open to studying packaging, labelling, or logistics needs of our customers.
 
 
Laboratories (C.C. & R&D)
 

In the different laboratories, raw materials, products in process, and end products are analysed. Work in these areas is based on quality management via a LIMS system that ensures compliance with the SOPs.

Continual investments in the most modern instrumentation ensure that it is abreast of the times.

The R&D laboratory works continually on the development of new products within the main families that comprise the company’s product range.
 
 
Ethics
 

A code of ethics governs our company principles.

Its essence is respect:

  • For the people who work with us.
  • For our customers and suppliers.
  • And, of course, a strict respect for the environment by using ecologically harmless processes.
