Construction Chemicals
The four core inputs for dry-mix mortar and tile adhesive — under one European counterparty.
HPMC, redispersible polymer powder, calcium formate and PCE superplasticiser — the materials that drive workability, open time, set behaviour and bond strength in every dry-mix and tile-adhesive line.
Every grade is REACH-mappable and ships against the technical spec your formulators already write to — HV viscosity for HPMC, redispersibility for RDP, water-reduction band for PCE.
Pre-shipment QC is coordinated through third parties and the COA/SDS/TDS dossier is in your QA team's inbox before the container leaves China. DDP to your gate, one point of contact across the engagement.
Food & Feed Ingredients
Regulated-grade preservatives and additives with the dossier your QA team expects.
Food-, feed- and wine-grade ingredients — sodium metabisulfite (E223) for wineries and breweries, potassium sorbate (E202) for bakery, dairy and beverage lines, plus the feed amino-acids and hydrocolloids your formulators specify by E-number.
Every SKU ships with the regulatory identifier on the label, a per-batch COA, full SDS and TDS, and the documentation pack your FSSC 22000 audit expects to see on file.
Where third-party verification is required (food contact, residue limits, allergen statements), Serica coordinates it with the producer before the lot leaves origin. Your QM team receives a complete dossier, not a pile of attachments to chase.
Plastics Additives
Filler, carrier and wax inputs that protect masterbatch margin per kilo.
CaCO₃ masterbatch on a PE carrier, PE / OPE waxes, standard-colour masterbatch and rubber-grade zinc oxide — the additives whose loading economics decide whether a compounding line holds margin or gives it back.
Grades are matched to the carrier resin, mesh and loading-rate band your line already runs. Documentation is REACH-mapped so the new origin clears your supplier-approval workflow without a second pass.
Where a tariff or anti-dumping classification could change the landed cost (TiO₂, certain alumina grades), Serica flags it before the RFQ rather than after the invoice.
Silanes & Specialty
Amino, epoxy, vinyl and alkyl silanes from one qualified origin, sealed for moisture.
The four working silane families an EU formulator typically buys — aminosilanes (APTES / AMEO) as coupling agents, epoxy silanes (GLYMO / GPTMS) as adhesion promoters, vinyl silanes (VTMO / VTEO) as crosslinkers, and alkyl / hydrophobic silanes for surface treatment — with MTES (methyltriethoxysilane) as the working methyl-silane grade most EU formulators specify by name.
Moisture-sensitive throughout. Every drum ships hermetically sealed with inner PE liner, desiccant layer and nitrogen blanket; CoA is issued per batch and REACH registration on the EU importer of record is confirmed before shipment.
Pre-shipment QC on every lot. One technical contact across the four product families.
Desiccants & Filtration
Molecular sieves, alumina and silica gel — one supply conversation across three applications.
3A molecular sieves for insulating glass units, 4A and 13X for industrial drying and gas separation, activated alumina for compressed-air treatment, plus standard and indicating silica gel. The full adsorbent range a single industrial buyer runs.
Documentation discipline is the differentiator: per-lot COA, particle-size and crush-strength data, plus the customs classification confirmed in writing before the container ships — so activated alumina is never mis-coded against fused-alumina anti-dumping scope.
Repeat-purchase by design. Once a grade is qualified on your line, the same packaging, the same dossier format and the same European counterparty repeat on every reorder.
How an SKU enters the live portfolio.
Every material is scored qualitatively across five axes before it advances. The radial below is the framework — per-SKU scores are held in the buyer-side dossier.
