About Us

Proton Chem is a chemical trading company based in Durban and has been conducting business throughout South Africa for over a decade.  We believe in supplying our clients with the products they need, rather than offering a limited basket of products.
The company is split into three main activities:

• Sourcing of chemicals on an emergency basis – We use our wide network of suppliers within South Africa to find chemical raw materials at very short notice.
• Dealing in surplus chemicals- We purchase surplus chemicals and responsibly find alternate uses and markets.
• Chemical Supplier based in Durban – Supplying fixed line products to a diverse client base.We have relationships with overseas suppliers and provide chemicals to the resin, tanning, food and personal care markets on a regular basis.

We operate in the several markets including:

• Paints
• Adhesives,
• Resins,
• Water Treatment,
• Detergent,
• Animal Feed
• Agricultural
• Pharmaceutical,
• Personal Care
• Food

Our ultimate  objective is to assist our clients by  providing raw material solutions that reduces the variable cost of production and prevents downtime of plants due to lack of raw materials whilst protecting the environment.
