Chemical Specialities(Pty)Ltd
| About us | It's the kind of approach that's seen CHEMSPEC grow from a one-man show using a pantry as a laboratory, and home as headquarters, to become the largest independent paint manufacturer in the country. Today CHEMSPEC is the largest privately owned paint manufacturer in South Africa. The company has a turnover 20 times that of 12 years ago and employs in excess of 1000 people, a growth that's been achieved entirely organically, without the injection of outside capital, a growth that's instead been the result of an inspiration for innovation, a constant striving to produce products that give our customers added value. Our insistence on producing superior systems at competitive prices has seen the formulation of a truly impressive range of products covering every possible paint system imaginable: Wood finishes, automotive refinishes, adhesives, decorative paints, an auto care range, specialist applications, industrial coatings and a wide range of associated products. But what's really made us is the calibre of our staff. People who live the conviction that success is a product of both time and hard work. People whose insisttence on excellence goes way beyond merely meeting industry norms. This is how CHEMSPEC has gained the reputation for outstanding quality and exceptional service, and why we continue to make an indelible impression in every market we choose to enter. Chem Spec has established a dynamic chain of paint stores called "the HOUSE of PAINT" that feature every type of paint you can imagine. By combining our industrial and automotive stores with our decorative division, we have created a one-stop paint destination with knowledgeable, factory-trained staff who have a wealth of technical expertise. They will happily share useful tips on which system to use, and how to make your painting project run smoothly. Choosing decorative paint becomes a pleasure with our clearly and logically laid-out stores, and computerised colour matching means we can even match paint to a fabric sample! Our class-leading industrial products include sealants, wood-finishes and our acclaimed range of wood stains. The HOUSE of PAINT is also the official distributor of SHERWIN WILLIAMS& SIKKENS AUTOMOTIVE paints, as well as the METALUX II range which is taking the refinishing market by storm. You will also find SATA and RUPES spray equipment, and a host of accessories at unbelievable prices. |
