​Welcome to Chemical Essentials (Pty) Ltd


​UPDATE: Friday 3/7 -  After taking a battering on stocks over the last few months we're now back to running almost as usual,  your regular suppliers should  have F10SC Vet Disinfectant and the majority of our other lines back in  stock, and products such as the F10 Hand Gel will be arriving in a matter of weeks. We thank you for your patience if you've been unable to source any products  recently.

Stay safe, and please remember to maintain social distancing and ongoing hand hygiene, we're not out of  this  yet  as Covid-19 is not going away anytime soon, as shown  in the recent suburb lockdowns in Melbourne.

​Who are we?
​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 and Papua New Guinea. We are the exclusive 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.
​
It's been almost 20 years since we opened our doors in Australia in 2001, and we have experienced substantial growth over this time, 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 15 years, F10SC remains the market leader in veterinary and animal related industries in 2020 as it's benefits simply can't be matched, and there are thousands of happy users in Australia who will attest to this.

​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!
​​​We supply a wide variety of market sectors in Australasia, so please contact us if you are interested in finding our how F10 products can benefit your specific industry.

NB: Please note that we only sell F10 products to registered businesses, not directly to the public. If you wish to purchase F10 for private use there are numerous online resellers available, or you can find a bricks and mortar vet or pet reseller on our "Where to buy F10" pages.
