About Us
Welcome to our world of innovative fragrances, flavours and top quality personal care ingredients.
Owner Managed Means Nimble and Decisive
Fourchem is proudly “non-corporate” in our culture and decision making. We exist to supply world class quality raw materials to our chosen markets quickly and with a smile on our face. We work with the best companies and aim to supply the best possible products with no fuss – just how business should be done!
Agencies
World class suppliers to back you up!
No matter how slick or professional your local supplier is, the principal agencies they represent are crucial to the quality and reliability of the product you are supplied. Fourchem prides itself in representing world leading manufacturers from Europe, India, Malaysia and the USA. We partner with innovative, quality driven manufacturers who can offer marketing, R&D and technical support services in very short lead times. We are not only driven by price, but quality and innovation are crucial to our decision making when choosing a global supply partner and this is what sets us apart in a world where “cheap and nasty” has become the norm.
