​Welcome to Chemical Essentials (Pty) Ltd

​Chemical Essentials (Pty) Ltd is a Melbourne based company that provides cleaning and disinfection products and solutions to a wide variety of industries throughout Australia, as well as specific markets in New Zealand, Singapore and Papua New Guinea. We are the sole importer of the internationally acclaimed F10SC Disinfectant and its related range of advanced cleaning, personal hygiene and animal skin care products. We also offer a range of top quality biosecurity related equipment including automatic chemical blending systems, which prevent product wastage and control costs, fogging machines for air space disinfection, disinfection mats, and electronic hands free soap dispensers. We've also added the exciting Adzorbstar odour control products to our range.
​
Since opening our doors in 2001, we have experienced substantial growth and now work with distribution partners in specific markets and service a multitude of customers over the length and breadth of Australia and its neighbouring countries. Despite a number of "copycat" products emerging over the last 10 years, F10SC remains the market leader in veterinary related industries in 2019 as it's benefits simply can't be matched, and there are thousands of happy users in Australia alone.

Our Philosophy

​Our philosophy is simple – efficacy and safety, along with a healthy dose of personal attention! We focus on finding the best products available for the industries we service, and drive our sales through the inherent benefits of these products and our ability to devise solutions to our customers problem areas. 

For instance, F10SC Disinfectant’s unique combination of efficacy and safety in the animal production market enables us to provide innovative and cost-effective disease control solutions without compromising workplace safety. A good example of this would be the control of Aspergillis in a large poultry hatchery via dosing of the humidification system water. See our PDF for further details.
​
​We strive to be an environmentally responsible company, ensuring we reuse packaging material wherever possible, and free-cycling old pallets, etc to people and organisations that want them. These toy cars for disadvantaged kids, made by a local Men's Shed, used to be F10 pallets!

BUYER BEWARE - certain other products claim to be half price "F10" when they are not that at all. Check all facts, particularly manufacturer's recommended dilution rates (you'll use a lot more) and contact times (far longer than F10), and you'll find there is a vast difference in performance, and the "half price" actually works out to be way more expensive than F10.
