Contract Chemical Manufacturing (Toll Manufacturing)
Actikem provides professional Contract Chemical Manufacturing Services, also known as Toll Manufacturing, from our ISO 9001:2015 certified facility in Warrington, Cheshire.
Since our founding in 2002, we have specialised in delivering high-quality chemical processing for both SMEs and blue-chip organisations across the UK and Europe.
Our mission is to provide an unrivalled service that acts as a seamless extension of your own production team, offering the flexibility and capacity required to meet shifting market demands without the overhead of in-house manufacturing.
Expert Toll Manufacturing and Bespoke Formulations
Our contract chemical manufacturing services are designed to accommodate a vast range of industrial applications, whether you require the production of existing formulations or the development of bespoke new products.
Using our on-site production plant and calibrated bespoke equipment, we manage everything from initial formulation support to large-scale commercial batches.
We understand the importance of intellectual property, which is why all our toll manufacturing projects are underpinned by strict confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements. This ensures your proprietary formulas remain secure while you benefit from our technical expertise and short lead times.
Comprehensive Handling of Hazardous and Non-Hazardous Materials
Safety and regulatory compliance are at the heart of our operations. Actikem is fully equipped to handle both hazardous and non-hazardous materials, relieving our customers of the significant health and safety burdens and legislative requirements associated with chemical processing.
Our team performs rigorous risk and COSHH assessments for every project, ensuring that all chemical manufacturing processes meet the highest industry standards.
As a partner of the Chemical Industry Association’s Responsible Care programme, we are committed to sustainable chemistry and safe handling practices, including specialised processes like kibbling and particle size management.
Quality-Assured Chemical Processing with ISO 9001 Standards
Quality is a non-negotiable aspect of our chemical blending service. Our ISO 9001:2015 accreditation ensures that every batch produced at our Warrington site undergoes stringent quality control checks and is fully traceable.
We provide detailed Certificates of Analysis (CoA) for all shipments, giving you total peace of mind that your product meets the exact specifications required.
Our on-site laboratory facilities allow us to monitor consistency and performance throughout the manufacturing cycle, ensuring that your chemical products maintain their integrity and functionality from the first batch to the last.
Integrated Repacking and Logistics for the Chemical Supply Chain
Beyond the Toll Manufacturing process, Actikem offers a complete end-to-end solution including chemical repacking, stock storage and strategic distribution.
As part of our Contract Chemical Manufacturing service, we can decant liquid chemicals from bulk tankers or large containers into a variety of sizes, ranging from IBCs and drums down to small sample bottles, using UN-approved packaging where necessary. We repack powders from F-IBC (big bags) into smaller packs, from 25kg paper bags, 10kg or 5kg HDPE containers and smaller.
Located at the heart of the UK’s chemical industry in the Northwest, we leverage excellent logistical links to provide efficient distribution services. By combining blending, repacking, and storage, we help our customers reduce double handling, streamline their operations, and achieve significant cost savings across their entire supply chain.
