We use chemicals to preserve, colour and flavour the food we eat and in producing the appliances and furnishings in our homes and offices. We use them in medicines, cosmetics, cleaning agents and the dyes and paints that create the colours around us.

Chemical manufacturing starts with simple raw materials such as crude oil or gas, common salt, sulphur or starch, and results in products such as paints, inks, soaps, detergents, resins, fertilisers, pesticides, synthetic rubber, plastic resins, explosives and additives for other products.

There are opportunities for Operators, Samplers and Testers, Laboratory Assistants, Technical Officers, Chemical Engineers and Design Engineers to build a great career in Chemicals.

If you have an interest in science and chemistry and want a career in a globally competitive, innovative environment, then Chemical Products could be an excellent start for you.
