nFOREWORD

On behalf of the Chemical Industries Association (CIA) it gives me great pleasure to once again endorse this year’s Chemicals Northwest (CNW) Sector Directory.

The acquisition of Chemicals Northwest by CIA continues to enhance national sectoral private sector leadership with practical, on-the-ground local support across CNW membership. However 2012-13 is also a year of consolidation for the network as it adjusts to life without public sector subsidy.

The 650 businesses and 50,000 people working within the North West chemicals sector have a crucial role to play in supporting the UK economy’s return to sustained growth. The chemical industry provides a £3 billion annual contribution to the regional economy and the region’s 27% share of UK chemical related exports means that it is easily the UK’s largest chemical exporting region.

The chemical industry is a key supplier to industries such as pharmaceuticals, automotive, electronics, cleaning and personal care; we are, regionally and nationally, an industry that matters! As CIA and CNW, we must therefore seize the opportunity in the current challenging economic climate to present our compelling message to the politicians, the regulators, the media and the general public that the UK’s economic recovery needs a vibrant and innovative chemistry-using industry.

With our new team at the Heath in Runcorn – headed up by John Roche (Operations Manager) and Alex Heys (Member Services and Events Manager) and supported by the CIA staff and the CNW Board – we have established a robust structure that will take CNW forward.

On the ground, I am delighted to report that the team have launched a very

successful breakfast networking model in 2011. This is being very well received by members and participation in our topic specific ‘common interest groups’ is growing. These, along with the regular seminars and workshops have seen high levels of interest and attendance so far in 2012.

The CNW communications levels are also gaining additional momentum with our e-bulletin and the CNW newsletter received by in excess of 2500 contacts each month.

We all are aiming for a sustainable Chemicals Northwest, through attracting more and more new businesses into membership. So far in 2012 overall membership is growing - an encouraging sign that the network is delivering value in enabling individual businesses to reach out and interact with others as well as promoting the sector in the region.

This Directory provides an excellent reference point for all that is good about the North West chemistry-using industry and I urge you all to work with us to help maximise your own business opportunities and strengthen the collective fortunes of our great industry.

UK Contract Chemical Manufacturers Providing Specialist Chemical Services Including Chemical Milling

The Company philosophy is to provide the broadest range possible of specialist chemical services to the market with complete confidentiality. Protol is committed one hundred percent to contract chemical manufacturing and does not make products of its own or trade materials directly or indirectly into any market. In this way it avoids any competitive conflict with its customers and potential customers. Protol is unusual in that it provides capacity for contract processing of both powders and liquids which many contractors do not. As a result it can offer “one stop” facilities and avoid the need for multi-contractor use.

Protol Comar Limited is a company committed to providing specialist chemical services and contract manufacturing facilities to meet customer’s requirements and to offer flexible

solutions to their problems. With over 25,000 sq.ft of factory and warehouse space there is ample room for accommodating both large and small production runs. As a chemical company rather than simply a product handling company we have the expertise to process the more difficult to handle products whether on the grounds of physical form or hazard classification.

In addition to performing routine contract process operations, Protol specialises in solving customers problems, big or small with utmost confidentiality. We welcome any enquiry and always provide a professional and efficient service of high quality and reliability at an affordable cost.

nWELCOME AND CONTACTS

Chemicals Northwest is pleased to welcome you to the 2012/13 annual directory, which is the industry’s most comprehensive source of information relating to the largest and most profitable regional cluster of chemical manufacturers in the UK.

The directory is utilised by companies and individuals within the region, throughout the UK and overseas, it is an invaluable guide to the North West’s chemistry-based businesses and associated service industries.

As well as highlighting the region’s manufacturing and supply capabilities, it also demonstrates the region’s world-class research and development facilities, higher education institutions and public sector stakeholders; all of which play a vital role in ensuring the continued competitiveness of the North West as a global centre for the chemical-related industries.

The array of companies and organisations listed in this edition illustrates the diversity of the sector in the North West and provides a priceless source of contacts for both Chemicals Northwest members and other organisations that are looking to actively engage with the sector.

An online version of the directory is available as a web book or to download at: www.chemicalsnorthwest.org.uk/north-west-industry-links/

n THE NORTH WEST CHEMICAL INDUSTRY

One of the Northwest’s greatest strengths is the breadth of chemicals expertise and capabilities at all levels. Its skilled knowledge base, wealth of suppliers, strong international links and attractive but relatively inexpensive geographic location means big businesses are drawn to the region across the whole spectrum of chemicals-related activity. The region has a rich history of scientific innovation and discovery that continues today. Building on a strong academic knowledge base, hi-tech fine and speciality chemical companies are spearheading the development of industry in the region. Their products support growth in established and emerging sectors, including biotechnology, nanotechnology and Information and Communication Technology (ICT).

Materials chemistry, in particular, is a core strength of the region’s chemicals offering, from aerospace chemicals and materials through to household and personal care products. The close links between the pharmaceuticals and chemicals sectors are much in evidence in the Northwest. It is a premier location for global pharmaceuticals and biotechnology companies, including giants such as GSK, Eli Lilly,

Bristol-Myers Squibb, Novartis, Sanofi-Aventis and AstraZeneca. Several of these companies originally grew out of the chemicals sector and most still use chemical processes to produce their products. This has reduced in recent years with the move towards biological processing and outsourcing, but there remains a dynamic base of chemical companies in the Northwest supplying services, products or materials for pharmaceutical applications at the R&D and clinical trial level, and at a larger scale for final product manufacture and distribution. These include chemical synthesis, analysis or custom manufacturing services, fine chemicals, intermediates, active pharmaceutical ingredients, pharmaceutical formulations, or delivery systems.

Printed electronics is about printing electrical circuits and miniscule electronic devices onto a range of flexible materials, such as paper, plastic and textiles. Manchester-based Nano ePrint, a spin-out from pioneering research at the University of Manchester, is one of a number of Northwest players at the leading edge of this innovative technology. Nano ePrint makes thin electronic devices in a single layer of thin-film

Broad range of expertise: Chemicals in England’s North WestThe Northwest’s chemicals industry is critical to many technology sectors, including electronics, renewable energy, automotive and aerospace, as well as pharmaceuticals and biotech.

semiconductor, which can be used in anything from interactive maps to smart packaging, passports to banknotes. Other Northwest companies at the global forefront of printed electronics technology include SAFC Hitech, Victrex, Fujifilm Imaging Colorants, Innovia and Nanoco, another spin-out from the University of Manchester and the world’s leading developer and manufacturer of quantum dots.

The renewable energy sector has also undergone huge growth over the past five years, with more to come – the UK is projected to produce 32% of its electricity from renewable sources by 2020. Many renewable technologies are still far from fully developed and there are potentially massive opportunities for either new materials and chemical innovations, or for new applications of existing chemical technologies. In the Northwest, companies like M&I Materials, Victrex, DSM Composite Resins, Leigh’s Paints, Nanoco, AGC, INEOS and MEL are already active in renewable markets.

In the automotive sector, where materials used include a wide range of polymers, composites and

resins, Northwest companies supply chemicals such as corrosion inhibitors, engine coolants, heat transfer fluids, colorants, hydraulic fluids, fuel additives, composites and alloys. Looking to the future, the region is at the forefront of environmentally aware innovations such as improved catalysts; temperature resistant materials for exhaust treatment; more fuel efficient materials; low carbon fuel sources and biodegradable or recyclable components. The Northwest is also the largest aerospace region in the UK, so it’s not surprising that chemicals companies are exploiting new opportunities to supply products and services to the sector, including suppliers of engineering polymers, fibres, metals and composites.

The presence of this strong chemical industry is complemented by businesses specialising in logistics, engineering, analytical and professional services and world class universities. They provide the world class business, physical and knowledge infrastructure that one would expect of a leading chemical manufacturing region.

n UK TRADE AND INVESTMENT

UK Trade & Investment has undergone considerable change since the last Chemicals Northwest directory was produced. The Coalition Government set out its ambition to rebalance the economy in the Trade and Investment for Growth White Paper and in The Plan for Growth. The target is to increase exports, especially to the high-growth and emerging markets of the new global marketplace, and to ensure that the UK remains one of the top destinations for foreign direct investment.

UKTI has a vital role to play in realising these ambitions and responded by launching our 2011-2015 strategy Britain Open for Business setting out how we will provide practical support to exporters and inward investors over the next five years.

We started from a position of successful performance. Over 2010/11 UK companies attributed £6 billion worth of additional profits to the actions of UKTI. That’s an additional £22 profit for every £1 spent on export promotion! In addition, more than half of Foreign Direct Investment projects coming to the UK were secured with the significant involvement of UKTI. Nevertheless, like all businesses with stretching ambitions, falling resources and fierce competition from other countries, it was imperative that we found better ways of working and new ways of extending our reach, by becoming more entrepreneurial and more collaborative.

UKTI’s strategy sets out four pathway for growth to extend our reach and support to UK companies:

n Trade: with a particular focus on high-growth and innovative SMEs to encourage significantly more companies to export.

n High Growth Opportunities: offering intensive support for larger companies seeking to win high-value opportunities overseas, with supply chain opportunities for SMEs.

n Inward Investment: enhancing our bespoke service for foreign direct investors as well as targetting institutional investors to create a pipeline of high-quality inward investment projects.

n Strategic Relationships: enhancing key account management of the most significant inward investors and UK’s top exporters ensuring they receive a consistent and joined-up service across government. A closer working relationship with partner organisations will also extend our reach to UK companies as well as promote the reputation of UK plc.

For UKTI Northwest our focus has been on:

n What is already working well and why, and

n What can be improved and how.

We continue to work with Chemicals Northwest offering schemes for new to export or more experienced SMEs with Passport to Export Success and Gateway to Global Growth. We also regularly discuss the potential to tailor our events and services for companies of all sizes such as our International Trade Strategy Review, Overseas Market Introduction Service, Trade Missions, participation at overseas tradeshows etc.

Our programme of events for 2012/13 continues to evolve. Your thoughts and ideas are welcome on how to maximise our assistance to the North West chemical community.

n EDUCATION AND ENGAGEMENT

Unfortunately due to the changing environment associated with public sector funding, Chemicals Northwest can no longer support and fund some of the initiatives aimed at schools and universities. That said, we have maintained our links, contributed and supported where we could and interacted when possible in getting young people excited about science and educating them about chemistry in a real-life context. Below are examples of how we have promoted these through 2011 - 2012:

Schools Analyst CompetitionThe 2012 Manchester heat of the Schools’ Analyst Competition took place on Tuesday the 24th of April at the Department of Chemistry & Environmental Science at Manchester Metropolitan University. This year, it being the year of the Olympics, the theme of the competition was doping analysis. Sixteen schools competed for first place and the opportunity to represent the NW region at the national final, which took place at the University of Bristol on the 25th-26th of June. Students were asked to identify suspect powder by FTIR-ATR; determine the content of ibuprofen in tablets by titration; and to quantify capsaicin in “horse urine” by HPLC.

The winners and runners up of this year’s competition were:

1. Altrincham Grammar School for Boys, Altrincham

2. Winstanley College, Wigan

3. Withington Girls School, Manchester

The competition was sponsored by the RSC Analytical Trust Fund and Melford Laboratories Ltd. There are currently sponsorship opportunities available for next year’s competition from chemical and analytical companies in the NW. If your company would like to support the next generation of scientists by sponsoring next year’s competition, please get in touch ([email protected]).

Catalyst Science Discovery CentreCatalyst Science Discovery Centre is a registered charity and the only hands-on discovery centre in the country with chemistry as its central theme. It welcomes over 25,000 visitors a year through its doors of which 12,000 are children and young people on organised school visits.

Catalyst believes in making science fun and accessible and offers schools and the general public an impressive range of workshops, activities and taught sessions linked to the national curriculum for young people from Early Years right through to Key Stage 4. No other educational support provider in the region can offer such a diverse range of activities under one roof. This dynamic learning experience has three galleries to explore, a 3D theatre offering 360 degree virtual tours of process and chemical plants as well as a state of the art laboratory where children as young as seven are taught practical science by Catalyst’s own award-winning education team.

Catalyst also works closely with industry to offer a range of opportunities for businesses seeking to work with young people or the general public. It’s Science at Work Week event held in June each year now attracts almost 1,000 school children and their teachers and over 20 businesses, academic institutions and professional societies. Catalyst’s Saturday Science Club attracts a membership of over 50 young people aged from 11-18 and enables those interested in science, and particularly chemistry, to explore exciting and interesting phenomenon in a safe environment, supported by industry volunteers and trained, experienced staff.

Catalyst is also an ideal partner to help fulfil an organisation’s corporate responsibility or community investment agenda. From hiring out meeting rooms and conference space to assisting those individuals who wish to attain their CChem by fulfilling one or more of the professional attributes, Catalyst is ideally equipped to support the chemical and chemical-using sector and raise its profile across the North West and beyond. For more information go to www.catalyst.org.uk

Student placementsAlthough Chemicals Northwest does not have the resources to offer student placements, we have actively promoted individuals or groups of individuals from schools/colleges/universities in their quest to find paid or unpaid work placements. We will continue to do this on a regular basis. If your company can offer a student a placement please contact [email protected] and we will keep your details on file for the future.

Education and EngagementChemicals Northwest and the Chemical Industries Association fly the flag for the North West and UK chemical sectors by promoting the benefits of the industry to the wider public and in particular, by engaging with young people from an early age and inspiring them to consider a chemistry-related career.

nDTEC SITE SERVICES

Rescue Service for Industrial Confined Space OperativesWith the HSE applying robust policing on confined space entries, there is increasing pressure on employers to ensure they are in full compliance with the Confined Space Regulations 1997. Regulation 5 specifically points to a mandatory requirement to have sufficient arrangements in place for the rescue of persons in the event of an emergency, whether or not arising out of a specified risk.

To help companies ensure they meet these requirements, Runcorn based Engenda Group has launched a new company, Column Rescue Ltd, which focuses purely on confined space entry preparedness and rescue standby. Research revealed that many company rescue plans were based around dynamic risk assessment at the point of the incident. This is a worrying factor given that a serious injury requiring rescue of a confined space worker is deemed reliant upon a “brain storming session” at the point of the event. Furthermore, research also revealed it was apparent that rescue teams were not necessarily coherent with the equipment logistics within industrial installations and fabrications. The Engenda Group summarised that this could best be addressed by training actual plant workers in rescue techniques and medical provision. The conclusion was the launching of a new confined space rescue company, Column Rescue Ltd.

Column Rescue is a specialist confined space rescue service provided primarily for the safe extraction of injured or unconscious personnel from within industrial confined spaces. Such a rescue can provide many unique challenges. The installed equipment within industrial fabrications means there are usually confined spaces within the confined space. Most confined space rescue personnel have traditionally been trained for harness or stretcher rescues from a vertical shaft. An injured worker lying in a confined space between mechanical barriers presents a challenge far more demanding than a straight shaft extraction. To effect such a rescue there needs to be a competent rescue squad who have an inherent knowledge of the equipment being encountered within the confined space. Column Rescue comprises personnel who are experienced mechanical workers, expertly trained in the use of modern and bespoke rescue equipment.

Furthermore they are able to provide initial first point medical attention to the casualty with rescue team members having been trained to EMT (Emergency Medical Technician) standard. Column Rescue provides a crucial safety service addressing the risks of confined space workers operating in truly enclosed envelopes. The service includes rescue planning, risk assessment and entry method statements.

The company also has a bespoke training facility offering various confined space courses and working at height and height rescue. For more information on Column Rescue Ltd, please visit their website www.columnrescue.com



n SECTOR SKILLS

From April this year the UK sector skills infrastructure has seen a shift from grant-funded bodies carrying out work requested by Government to a contestable funding environment. In some cases, funds are only open for Sector Skills Councils, and in others they are open to a huge range of organisations.

In collaboration with the National Skills Academy Process Industries and employers, Cogent has been, and continues to be very successful in the bidding process, securing project funds to support skills development at every level. Our overall aim is to build and enable a skills system that works for employers, listening to business needs expressed through our Industry Advisory Councils and identified through research.

Cogent has restructured into three main business units to ensure that we deliver all the projects, with regular reporting to and sign-off by employer board members. Their oversight helps ensure that each project remains focused on helping business and leveraging co-investment from companies.

The following examples show that with continued employer commitment these programmes, tools and frameworks will help businesses meet skills needs and help individuals fulfil their potential in a high-skill-high value sector.

A new Technical Apprenticeship Service (TAS) was one of the projects launched in October 2011 with support from the Government’s £50m Growth and Innovation Fund (GIF).

TAS has now become an established company with office space in the Cogent Warrington office. TAS staff have worked to set up, or re-engage existing SME networks to offer support to employers about taking on apprentices and, in some cases to enable the sharing of apprentices.

TAS has commercial brokerage agreements in place with 33 training providers to introduce apprentice candidates and employers. The contract target for 40 apprenticeship placements at the end of May 2012 compares with 57 apprentice requests from employers at differing stages of recruitment and actual placement.

Helping SMEs to help themselves: A prototype skills diagnostic tool for SMEs has been prepared as part of the Growth and Innovation Funded Gold Standard project. The first phase – which we have tested with employer groups, uses light touch questions, framed around the four areas of the Gold Standard competency framework, to encourage employers to commit to the Gold Standard journey. Their answers are plotted on a spider gram against best industry practice to encourage them to want a more detailed diagnosis that can be carried out online, or face to face with consultants from the National Skills Academy. The unique system will also highlight competencies that need addressing and signpost SMEs to the online skills store matching training solutions available from Academy-accredited providers.

The Skills Shop concept is currently being tested to establish an on-line facility to directly purchase products and services, primarily from the National Skills Academy Process Industries. A validation process is being tested to allow providers to submit courses.

New process Career Pathways: Over the summer Cogent will be updating the role data and industry context information for our existing web-based career pathways information service. This helps people map new careers in the sector, or to develop new skills and progress to new levels or associated roles. A parallel project to develop new life science career pathways provides a more interactive and flexible web-based display system, into which we will migrate existing process industries pathways later this year.

Process Safety: The Process Safety Foundation in Management Training Standard is now approved and courses started to be delivered from June 2012. We have also agreed to develop Process Safety Operator and Process Safety Train the Trainer Training Standards.

Gold Standards: Two new Gold standards have also been approved - Industry Professional Process Manufacturing and Industrial Biotechnology Process Technician. Four Gold Standards are also currently under development – Warehouse Operative, Formulation Technology, R & D Scientist and Explosives Disposal Suite.

A draft SME Gold Standard for Life Science companies is out for consultation, based on a CPD Framework of short modular courses.

Petroleum Safety Training (PST) programmeA new Petroleum Safety Training Programme course and supporting materials are now available and approved by the Downstream Advisory Council. A series of showcase events are being organised, to help Downstream Senior Management and Contractor Management understand the brand new PST course developed for the downstream contractor workforce.

Events are scheduled for refinery sites in Scotland, NW England, SW Wales and Humberside.

DECC request for Tanker Driver standards review: Cogent, in conjunction with Skills for Logistics, have been asked by the Secretary of State at DECC to re-convene the UK Downstream Oil Distribution Forum to review health and safety and training standards for tanker drivers. Former Cogent Board member Brian Worrall has agreed to be the independent chair of this group.

Memorandum of Understanding (MOUs): Cogent is currently working with the Explosives Sector to develop a suite of Explosives Disposal Gold Standards, and we have recently signed an MOU with the Institute of Explosive Engineers to support the sector’s skills strategy, along with promoting Process Safety training where appropriate.

Building a skills system that works for employers


nSECTOR SKILLS

We are working with the Royal Society of Chemistry to map Chartered Chemist and Registered scientist criteria to the relevant Gold Standards, and we hope that earlier discussions with the IMechE in March will lead to similar collaboration. We are looking to jointly promote EngTech registrations through a TAS (Technical Apprenticeship) apprenticeship.

Cogent is collaborating with Intelligent Formulation to develop Formulation Technology Gold Standards, and signed an MOU to develop a potential bid into future Growth Innovation Funds. We are also in partnership with the Centre for Process Innovation (CPI), to develop Industrial Biotechnology training modules such as An Introduction to Microbiology.

Applying the Gold Standard in the workplace - SABIC win the Gold Standard Skills AwardIn June this year, the CIA hosted the Chemical Industries Awards in Gateshead, where Cogent and the National Skills Academy for Process Industries sponsored the Gold Standards Skills Award. This recognises the employer who has done the most to contribute to the acquisition of skills by the company’s workforce through working towards the Cogent Gold Standard.

SABIC’s “Activity Based Learning”, a competence based learning system involves a complete analysis of all competences needed for every single role within the business; achieved via consultation with a large percentage of workforce, in each particular role, and their line management.

A key feature of SABIC’s training investment in their new Management Development Program allows technicians to bridge the gap to management positions.

SABIC’s Learning and Development Manager Kathryn Harper, who received the Gold Standard Skills Award on the company’s behalf was commended by Cogent CEO Joanna Woolf;

“We’re delighted to see this important award go to SABIC UK Petrochemicals. The company’s comprehensive training and development programs are benchmarked to the highest standards and importantly provide robust competency-based career pathways for employees. This Award is well-deserved, reflecting a highly innovative learning approach at SABIC.”

Life Science Annual report: The first Life Science Annual Skills report has been completed and distributed. This sets out how we will deliver the requirements of the Government’s

Life Science Skills Action plan, and noting the rapid progress we have already made in securing industry attention and contribution to the skills agenda, in what is a relatively new addition to the Cogent industry portfolio.

Our research team are currently working to collate, analyse and refine the huge amount of primary research that already exists to supplement our own employer consultation data, and provide both the evidence base for our skills activity, and key messages about looming skills and innovation issues that will resonate with employers.

Higher Apprenticeship (HAF) project: Four Higher Apprenticeship pathways have been identified, with two in Life Sciences and Healthcare. The new frameworks will be issued in July consisting of HNC, HND and Foundation Degrees to provide more flexibility on delivery and funding. The HNC/HND materials are being developed by educational publishers Pearson.

The big challenge is that the Higher Apprenticeship is a new product being delivered into new markets where established providers are scarce. Consequently we are taking a range of actions to educate the market and provide for a more flexible approach all intended to increase take-up.

Life Science Skills Awards: We will officially launch our new annual Life Science Skills Awards at our House of Commons Terrace event in October 2012. Planning is already underway on the categories of awards and getting buy-in from employers to both sit as judges and to enter. The first LS Awards will be held at the Connaught Rooms London on 16th May 2013.

Window on World: This EIF2-funded project seeks to establish a comprehensive web-based skills portal/gateway for the Life Science Industries signposting to existing sources of data and help, but also embedding some Cogent offers and services.

An initial test website has been built to host information on Apprenticeships, standards and qualifications. We are building the capacity to include Placements and Mentoring services which are the subject of separate bids referred to above.

Life Science Pathways: The Window on the World will also be home to new career pathways in Life Sciences that take our existing web-based careers product to a new level. Future pathways will include Medical and Industrial Biotechnology, and links to existing pathways hosted by the NHS.

Spotlight on Evolving Sites and Capabilities Approach

Evolving Times

The modern day site has changed dramatically as the chemical sector has evolved itself. In the current economic climate, site owners/operators could look for cost and scale benefits by sourcing integrated services from their suppliers. The need for a more integrated approach is being adopted by suppliers as they look to stay ahead of the curve and provide a service that truly meets their clients’ needs, expectations and budget.

Size Does Matter

G4S is the largest security solutions company in the UK and Ireland, with over 40,000 employees managed from over 80 offices across the United Kingdom. They are renowned for pulling resources from their national and international operations. Benefits range from the deployment of skilled, trained and motivated personnel to taking advantage of G4S’ experience in the chemical industry. The G4S name offers clients financial stability, and the peace of mind that G4S will be there to deliver the service in the current economic climate.

G4S recruits their personnel locally and the service is delivered from regional and local offices; supported by named and experienced contract managers offering day to day support and guidance through all legislative needs.

Training is the Key to Success

G4S works closely with manufacturers to ensure their people use the most up to date and effective equipment. This allows them to offer the best service to their customers. This paired with unrivalled and specialist training packages for G4S’ front line staff allows them to deliver a unique and tailored service based on their client’s specific site(s) requirement.

Safety and Security Officer (SASO)

This has led to the development of the Safety and Security officer. With COMAH regulations to consider, security matters for sites to handle and environmental issues to deal with on a daily basis, the G4S Safety and Security Officer (SASO) approach is one that has been invaluable to security operations in chemical environments. It is clear that on the majority of chemical sites, security operations are so much more than a security officer sitting in a gatehouse controlling access and egress. The security provision is very much part of the site operation, they are involved in incident control planning & management, are often the first point of contact to deal with specific chemical incidents (administering first aid and response) and instrumental in emergency planning and evoking of related procedures.

Technology Matters

Recognising the importance of selecting the correct equipment for the situation and for those who will use it, G4S uses the latest technology alongside teams of trained employees. The technology and training provided for their officers enables them to deliver the highest possible security to the chemical sector.

On chemical sites, G4S personnel prevent breaches of security on a daily basis that would otherwise result in disruption to operations and substantial costs incurred to site owners. The equipment used during these operations, such as thermal imaging cameras and optical devices, is vital in tracking and capturing would-be intruders. However, these items are redundant without the expertly trained security officers which use them.

There is a large portfolio of UK-wide services that encompass:

nSafety and Security Officer (SASO)

nManned Security Services

nAlcohol & Drug Screening

nFirst Attack Fire Response Officers

nSecure Transport & Logistical Officers

nCanine Services

nRisk Management & Consultancy

nGurkha Services (Enhanced Security Surge Capability)

nSecure Facilities Management

nSecurity Systems & Technology

nEvent Security

With the comfort and knowledge that every aspect of site security and logistical matters can be taken care of by a single supplier, it no doubt goes a long way in offering site managers peace of mind and allows them to focus on their duties.

nREACH

Most people working in the chemical sector will have heard of or will have varying degrees of understanding about REACH. REACH stands for Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of CHemicals.

It is an EU regulation that requires chemical and chemical using companies to each register the substances or substances in mixtures that they manufacture or import in/into the EU above 1 tonne per year. Registration involves compiling and submitting a dossier of information that proves the substances can be used safely throughout the supply chain and is effectively a licence to manufacture or import. As well as the requirement to register, REACH aims to provide a high level of protection of human health and the environment. At the same time, there were clear aims that REACH would enhance the competitiveness of the EU chemicals industry by fostering innovation and ensuring high safety standards for its products. There is considerable debate and doubt about the impact on competitiveness and innovation and the European Commission commissioned a surveys on competitiveness and innovation as part of the 2012 REACH Review.

REACH has an impact on almost all UK business sectors. From retailers to builders, cosmetic producers to printers – most businesses use some form of chemicals. So this is not just about manufacturers or shippers. Suppliers, wholesalers and end users will be impacted at some point.

REACH sets out a three-phased process after which time all substances subject to registration will have been registered. As it stands, all phase-in substances manufactured or imported into the EU at levels greater than 1,000 tonnes per year per legal entity as well as those with certain known hazardous properties should have been registered towards the end of 2010. Next year sees the next registration deadline come into play; by the end of May 2013, those substances manufactured or imported in the 100 – 1,000 tonnes per year per legal entity band will also have to be registered.

So what’s been happening for those involved in the initial phase of implementing the legislation? Sitting back and having a well earned rest after the close of the first REACH registration deadline?

Probably not, they have been busy communicating the output of REACH by:

n Updating their safety data sheets (SDS’s) to meet the new EU requirements.

n Interpreting new eSDSs (Extended Safety Data Sheets) received from their suppliers.

n Wrestling with how to write and incorporate exposure scenarios.

n Re-classifying and notifying substances according to the new CLP (Classification, Labeling, Packaging) regulation.

n Coping with updates to the Candidate List and the first substances that will be subject to authorisation.

n Trying to extract even more information on the vulnerability and presence of SVHC’s (Substances of Very High Concern) in their supply chains.

To cap it all, REACH is going global – China, Korea, Turkey and India are all implementing legislation, with the US expected to follow in 2012/13.

The list above should be enough to grab people’s attention but what does the lead up to the next registration phase in June 2013 mean?

REACH – Looking back and forging ahead


n REACH

The challenges this presents over and above those already experienced during the 2010 registration mean that single registrants and those in SIEFs will have many issues to address. Several of these seem critical for a successful registration, namely:

a. Look for consortia that have already been formed and that handle related chemistry since a consortium can do a number of things a SIEF cannot (e.g. spend money to develop data and include non-EU legal entities in its membership).

b. If no consortium exists, communicate with the SIEF to see if one is appropriate and can be established. In some cases, the communications can be streamlined by setting up an organisation that is both a SIEF and a consortium, provided that a number of legal preconditions are met.

c. For consortia, agree on the substance list as early as possible so that effort is not spent on substances that don’t end up being registered.

d. Once the substance list is agreed, conduct a data gap analysis to determine what testing needs to be done. Only tests in Annexes VII and VIII need to be completed for the registration dossier, but the balance must form part of a test plan.

e. Look for substance grouping/read across opportunities. This is not only efficient in terms of workload, but also reduces testing costs.

f. Develop and document a registration strategy. Given that a larger number of substances will be registered by small to medium sized companies, defining a clear registration strategy at an early stage should make the process more transparent to the registrants.

g. Start the whole process now!

More positives; there is a lot more information and advice available than during the first phase. There are many companies and associations offering service, training and awareness. This includes the REACHReady options, www.reachready.co.uk and the Chemicals NW ‘user group’ [email protected] , as examples. CNW members become REACHReady Gold Subscribers for a reduced rate using the partner code CNW262 at sign up and gain access to their REACH & CLP experts via their Helpdesk.

For many companies, it is now time to face the next set of challenges and ramp up activity for the second phase of registration. There are an estimated 4 thousand substances that need to be registered by end of May 2013 – and although this is a similar number to those that were registered in 2010 , many of these substances have lesser known properties and consequently a lot less data available to enable a registration dossier to be compiled; the gaps are having to be filled by reading across to similar substances or by commissioning costly hazard and toxicity testing to prove that these substances are safe to use. The SIEF (Substance Information Exchange Forum) joint working approach between all companies with an interest in registering the same substance has become even more important during this phase.

Waste Heat Systems for the Chemical IndustryWhether acrylic acid, butanediol or THF: wherever chemicals are produced residues arise which have to be disposed of in line with the environment. To make a virtue out of necessity more and more companies from the chemical sector extend their production plants by an own disposal plant for chemical residues. This type of plant not only ensures that the residues are disposed of safely, but it simultaneously functions as a power plant. The heat from the combustion process is recovered and used to produce industrially usable steam which can either be utilised as process steam or transformed into electrical energy via a steam turbine. This way the chemical plant becomes less dependent on fossil fuels which would normally be needed to produce the necessary amount of steam.

Germany-based plant constructor Oschatz is a specialist for the design and production of such plants. Founded back in 1849 as a factory for steam boilers, the company has evolved into an international plant constructor for widely varied and individual plants which are in operation in all parts of the world. With approximately 1,300 employees and branches all over the world, Oschatz is market leader for waste heat systems in the product areas of iron and steel metallurgy, non-ferrous metallurgy, environmental and chemical technologies. For the chemical industry, Oschatz designs and produces turnkey residue combustion systems (outlined above) as well as core components for sulphuric acid, nitric acid, caprolactam and hydroxylamine plants.

In 2011 the subsidiary Oschatz UK Ltd. was founded to represent the Oschatz Group in the United Kingdom. Based in Warwick, the

company develops strategic opportunities and implements plants across the UK. Oschatz UK is a member of the Renewable Energy Association (REA), which has been promoting the use of renewable energies in the UK for over ten years.

Company description

Talent Proofing the UK Chemicals Industry

Firstly, key skills are not evenly distributed across workers of different ages and experience. For instance, senior members of staff often have more technical skills than the younger generation simply because modern manufacturing machinery does not require these specific technical skills. However, when machinery is out of action these specialist skills are called into play, so it is vital that we find a long-term solution to this ‘skills gap’.

Secondly, the chemicals sector has image issues. Known unfairly as ‘bucket chemistry’, many people see it as the poor relation to the glamorous, big money industry of pharmaceuticals. Although this is a mistaken stereotype, it is damaging as university and school leavers and other promising young talent will flock to what they perceive to be the ‘trendier’ sectors, to the detriment of the chemicals industry.

So how can we address these challenges?Firstly, we can drive young people to join this sector from an earlier age by better educating and exciting them about the spectrum of careers in chemistry whilst at school. By addressing the skills pipeline earlier, we can encourage young people to opt for chemistry degrees. In addition, the industry should be encouraging young people to take up apprenticeship schemes, or help them by providing partial funding for university degree courses with associated work experience and opportunities. Now that tuition fees are on the rise there is a real opportunity to attract young people to the chemicals industry simply by supporting them more effectively.

Additionally, businesses should look to future-proof the industry themselves through better talent planning, by looking holistically at all available resources over the longer term. This will ensure they have the staff they need for the future, and can work with recruitment providers to guarantee they have the supply to meet their demand.

To gather such talent, we should also look to other industries and sectors such as FMCG or pharma manufacturing. Much of the time these key skill sets are transferable, and we also have an opportunity to attract skilled workers from overseas to ensure we remain competitive in the UK market.

In the longer term, we need to work together to elevate the industry’s reputation. By telling the story of chemicals better, we can illustrate the important role that this significant sector plays in the UK economy. BASF has kick-started this by recently launching an advertising campaign to increase awareness of the company’s contribution by bringing the chemicals industry to life for a mainstream audience. Other players need to follow this example to change perceptions of the industry, and this isn’t just a job for the large companies. Smaller companies can also help by making it more personal and ultimately a place where people want to work.

Only by taking such an approach can we help safeguard the long-term viability of this key industry in the UK.

By Dominic Graham, Professional and Technical Director, Kelly Services

The chemicals sector is hugely important for the UK economy. With sales of £34 billion, it is one of the largest manufacturing industries, employing around 240,000 people. But it is facing major challenges that threaten its long-term stability. Many of these challenges are workforce based.

AVEVA – The technology foundation of the chemical engineering industries

A Cambridge heritageFounded as a visionary initiative between Cambridge University and the UK government, AVEVA pioneered the development of 3D engineering design. Thus was born a uniquely powerful approach to engineering design which, for over 40 years, has been known to engineers around the world as PDMS, the Plant Design Management System.

So successful has this technology proved that PDMS has long been used on many of the most complex projects in oil & gas, chemicals and power generation. This success has led to AVEVA becoming a FTSE 250 company employing over 1300 people inover 25 countries around the world.

An industry partnerAVEVA’s deep understanding of its customers’ needs, and the solid reliability of its software, has made it a trusted partner to many of the world’s leading process engineering companies.AVEVA works closely with its customers to maximise the value they gain from its products and to ensure that its technology development continues to meet real-world needs and opportunities. AVEVA technology inherently protects its users’ valuable information assets while offering ever more powerful ways to exploit their value.

Removing limitationsAs engineering becomes an ever more global industry, AVEVA leads the way in removing technical barriers to collaborative working and the ability to share information. It promotes industry-wide adoption of open standards for data exchange, while its own engineering and design applications share a common database, integrating the work of distributed project teams. It anticipated the globalisation of the plant industry by developing what is still the most powerful solution for collaborative engineering and design on multi-site projects. The information challenge

While AVEVA’s increasingly powerful engineering and design software continues to enable ever more efficient projects, some of the biggest opportunities for increased business efficiency lie in information management. As process plants become increasingly complex, the quantity and complexity of their information assets increase exponentially. But while these assets remain fragmented and incompatible, operators cannot make full use of them. Here also AVEVA is removing limitations with the most advanced information management technologies that integrate and validate every type of information – not just engineering data – and make it readily accessible to all users. These technologies do not only increase operating efficiency on new plants, they may be applied to the older generations of assets, enabling them to be more easily upgraded to increase output and meet more stringent regulatory requirements.

Global solutions, local supportAVEVA’s world-leading solutions are delivered and supported through a global network of offices, staffed by knowledgeable professionals. Technical expertise combined with industry knowledge enables rapid implementation of solutions which support best-practice working methods. Whether for engineering contractors or plant Owner Operators, flexible software configuration and ease of expansion, backed up by expert local technical support, ensures that an AVEVA deployment will continue to provide competitive advantage as a customer’s business needs evolve.

For more information about AVEVA, visit www.aveva.com/chemical or call 01246 572300 alternatively email [email protected]

The world relies on engineering and the engineering industries in turn rely increasingly on software created by AVEVA, one of the most successful companies in this highly competitive sector. Today, wherever you are in the world, it is likely that plants designed, built or operated using AVEVA software fuel your car, made the fertilisers that help grow your food and the fibres and dyes for your clothes.

n MAG AIRPORTS

Manchester Airport: Gateway to the NorthManchester Airport is the international gateway for the North of England and is now the UK’s 3rd largest airport, handling over 19 million passengers and more than 100,000 tonnes of air cargo annually.

More than 60 airlines offer direct flights from Manchester to 190 destinations worldwide – more than any other UK airport – with every major city in the world, accessible either non-stop or in one-stop.

The airport also supports a significant business community based on site at its 57-acre World Freight Terminal a multi-modal ground transport interchange with integrated motorway and rail connections.

Around 100 logistics providers including freight forwarders, general sales agents, cargo handling agents and airlines can assist you with all your import and export requirements. Such is their dedication to trade in the North West, they can also arrange, through air charter brokers, dedicated air cargo capacity for your niche or highly time sensitive logistics requirements.

The World Freight Terminal currently provides around 1.1 million sq ft of business premises and is immediately adjacent to the M56 motorway, with a dedicated junction serving the site, making it the ideal consolidation and distribution gateway to serve the North West’s Chemical Industry.

Manchester Airport is operational 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to ensure minimal disruption to the supply chain whilst also offering the benefit of avoiding the congestion both in the air and on the ground commonly associated with London and the South East airports.

Manchester Airport offers global connectivity through many of the world’s leading airlines including American Airlines,

Delta, Emirates, Etihad Airways, Lufthansa, Qatar Airways, Singapore Airlines, Turkish Airlines, United, US Airways plus many other European and non-European airlines offering hub and point to point connectivity.

The airport handles pure cargo services operated by Cathay Pacific Cargo, Lufthansa Cargo and FedEx to cater for your larger shipments and your express delivery requirements, with aircraft ranging from ATR-72’s up to the B747-400F.

The airport has two parallel runways each more than 3,000 metres in length offering full intercontinental capability, and include full CAT III protection to ensure that inclement weather does not delay the transportation of your goods or those of your customer’s.

The airport infrastructure has been significantly upgraded to accommodate the most modern, efficient and largest aircraft in the world including the A380 and the B747-8F to ensure Manchester Airport remains a global gateway for business in the North West.

This commitment to offering the most modern infrastructure continues with the new Air Traffic Control Tower which is currently under construction which will offer an unparalleled overview of the airfield and the most up to date technology to ensure maximum operational efficiency and safety.

Airport City

The next step in the development of Manchester Airport, was unveiled by the Chancellor George Osborne in January 2012 – Airport City.

Airport City will to transform Manchester Airport from a regional transport hub into an international business destination in its own right, at a cost of £650m over ten-to-15-years.


nMAG AIRPORTS

Airport City Manchester aims to compete with similar projects at Amsterdam, Frankfurt and Barcelona, which provide a location for businesses that require the high levels of international and regional connectivity provided by being based on site at a major international airport.

The 150-acre development scheme will deliver up to five million square feet of new high-quality business premises, with the aim of attracting international companies that would not previously have located in the region, or even the UK. A vibrant economic hub with connectivity at its heart, it aims to be one of the world’s most accessible and leading commercial locations and will create new, high quality business space, including: manufacturing, logistics and warehousing accommodation, grade ‘A’ offices, hotels, retail and leisure facilities.

Airport City’s commercial property offering will accommodate a mix of uses to complement core aviation activities at the airport. It will provide unique, high quality and bespoke environments designed to appeal to graduates, entrepreneurs and global business.Manchester is well placed with an international offer based on established academic research and technology, innovative businesses, communications and transport infrastructure. Airport City will fill the gap in the market that currently exists for a high quality and well-connected business destination that is connected to a major UK city with easy access the global market place. The Airport City project is also the focal point of the wider Manchester Enterprise Zone, alongside a ‘MediPark’ development at University Hospital South Manchester (UHSM), a world-class research hospital and centre of clinical excellence. The MediPark initiative will see the creation of a medical and related services complex within the Enterprise Zone, building on its academic support by the University of Manchester.

The Enterprise Zone designation affords new occupiers up to £275,000 worth of rates relief, a simplified planning process, as well as superfast broadband and focused support from the DTI for inward investment.

Airport City has been in pre-development for a number of years and stage one infrastructure works are due to commence on site later this year.

TTE PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME

TTE is highly focused on a person centred development programme for its Learners. As part of your training at TTE, learners will be engaged in many team building activities at Brathay in the Lake District. Here they will take part in a series of challenging indoor and outdoor activities designed to give them the chance to learn more about themselves and how they work - on their own and in a team. The objectives of the course are primarily to explore areas of communication and recognise what is useful. Learners will also practice step-by-step approaches to problem solving and develop teamwork skills. It is also important that they learn to understand how what they do and say impacts on those around them and appreciate that others work in different ways and need different things to help them work and learn. This will help them to grow in self-confidence, build interpersonal relationships and take responsibility for their own learning. In addition to this they will learn how to take responsibility for working safely in a high-risk environment and how to understand the link between ‘doing’ and ‘learning.’ The skills learnt through TTE’s Personal Development Programme are invaluable and will equip them to deal with a variety of situations and challenges, both at home and in the workplace.

Awarded a Grade 1 Outstanding by ALI (The Adult Learning Inspectorate) and a 5 Star Health and Safety record from the British Safety Council; TTE Pride themselves on delivering first class training to help bridge the skill gap within the Petroleum and Chemical industries.

One of our areas of specialism is CompEx Training (Competency in Explosive atmospheres). CompEx is the global solution for Competency Validation and Certification for both electro technical and mechanical craftsperson’s working in explosive atmospheres. EU Legislation ATEX & DSEAR now makes it mandatory for all personnel working in potentially explosive atmospheres to be adequately trained and deemed competent. DSEAR and ATEX are abbreviations for The Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations 2002 (DSEAR) and Explosive Atmospheres Directives 99/92/EC (ATEX 137) and 94/9/EC (ATEX 100) which are enforced by the HSE and Local Authorities, Fire brigades and Petroleum Licensing Authorities. Potentially explosive atmospheres occur in onshore and offshore petrochemical plants and refining plants. They are also found in distilleries, paint spraying plants, flourmills, woodworking machine plants, the water industry and petrol and fuel forecourt environments. Failure to ensure safe working practices in these circumstances could result in the ignition of explosive gases or even dust clouds leading to injury or even fatalities.

Since its inception CompEx has certificated over 30,000 candidates. The IEC Standards are at the heart of all CompEx delivery to ensure international conformity and harmonisation of safe working practices.

TTE provide specialist training and assessment services for engineers working in hazardous and industrial environments. We advise, assess and provide training for organisations to meet with National, International and European Standards and Directives.

We are UKAS accredited and an approved JTL CompEx Assessment Centre. We offer nationally recognised courses as directed by EEMUA to electrical and instrumentation technicians and mechanical craftspersons.

A New Investment40 theoretical plate glass-lined fractional distillation column

Health and Safety Law requires safety-critical tasks to be undertaken by a ‘competent’ person. This means that your employees must possess the skills, knowledge and experience to perform their job properly, to a recognised standard, and in a safe manner at all times. Not only during the day-to-day running of the plant, but also during maintenance activities and in emergency situations.

We all like to think that we have a competent workforce, but in order to be sure that your safety-critical tasks are in safe hands you need to be able to demonstrate it.

Why is competency so important?

Lack of the requisite skills, knowledge and experience pertaining to safety-critical tasks and situations have been contributory factors in a number of major accidents in recent years – as well as those infamous incidents at Bhopal, BP Texas City and Buncefield. Operators of high hazard sites therefore need to assess the competency of their employees and rectify any gaps before their actions give rise to a major accident.

The UK chemical industry is under ever increasing pressure from competition overseas and the tightening economic situation has forced redundancies; as a consequence fewer staff are now all too often faced with greater workloads and lower levels of supervision. Add to this the burden of ageing plant and it’s easy to see why assuring the competence of your staff is so important.

The difference between aptitude and competence

Being able to follow procedures or holding specific qualifications is not the same as being competent. Competence requires an understanding of the reasons for specific procedures and the consequences of not following them correctly. It includes the ability and confidence to diagnose and remedy faults. It assumes an awareness of the immediate environment, the skills and ability to operate plant to keep risks as low as reasonably practicable and the experience to act safely and appropriately in unfamiliar situations.

Managing competency

‘Competency Management’ is one of the key HSE inspection topics for the period 2012 to 2015. Assessing and assuring competence can be a large and daunting task, but it is essential to maintaining site and process safety. HFL Risk Services are Human Factors and Process Safety Management specialists, experienced in developing successful risk management programmes across the entire spectrum of chemical and processing companies. Our Human Factors team can lift the burden from your shoulders by helping you to develop and implement an effective Competency Management System (CMS).

INSIGHT Lifecycle®

The first step in a successful CMS is to identify and prioritise safety critical tasks according to their risk potential. The competency of operators responsible for performing those tasks should then be evaluated. This is achieved by defining performance standards and then assessing relevant staff against those standards. We work in a pragmatic manner, using our unique INSIGHT Lifecycle® auditing tool to identify gaps in employees’ knowledge and skills, making sure that all assessments are proportionate to the hazards and risks concerned.

Following assessment we work together to develop processes and procedures to ensure safe operation at all times and standards are met. This includes providing tailored on-site training aligned to the Cogent Gold Standard.

Ongoing Competency Assessment

In order to ensure that competency remains at the forefront of your process safety programme, we recommend monitoring and reassessing your Competency Management System, especially in respect to change management. HFL Risk Services can assist companies at any stage of their competency journey, so if you already have a CMS in place, we can assess its effectiveness by benchmarking against industry best practice and providing recommendations.

Don’t Guess Seek Advice Dangerous Goods are,

after all - Dangerous

Hardly a day goes by without being asked rudimentary questions about the Carriage of Dangerous Goods, and of great concern, a surprisingly high proportion of these questions come from ‘those who should know better’.

In this day and age of technology there really aren’t any excuses. Simply type into Google the phrase “Dangerous Goods Transport” and the first result listed is for the Department for Transport which, before drilling the link, states that ‘…there are regulations specific to transporting dangerous goods…’So as they say, ignorance simply isn’t bliss anymore.

ADR Chapter 1.8.3.1 states - “Each undertaking, the activities of which include the carriage, or the related packing, loading, filling or unloading, of dangerous goods by road are required by law to appoint one or more safety advisors for the carriage of dangerous goods, responsible for helping to prevent the risks inherent in such activities with regard to persons, property and the environment.”

I decided that as Managing Director of Ital Logistics it was my duty to take on the role of Dangerous Goods Safety Advisor (DGSA) in April 2004. Since then I have renewed my qualification, and have been joined by Derek Heap as secondary DGSA to the Company. Apart from complying with regulatory procedures, we also have a moral duty to ensure that these regulations are followed – after all, dangerous goods are what they say they are – dangerous.

So, having got that out of my system, and concluded my sermon, what can we do for you?

The adjacent advert will tell you that we provide Roadfreight Groupage services to and from Italy, Spain, Portugal and Greece. It also advises that in addition to these core services, we can provide forwarding services throughout Western, Central and Eastern Europe. And yet, we are an SME with a head count of just seventeen. And as you will have read in my preceding spiel, amongst these seventeen we have two DGSAs, which reinforces our ‘do it right’ philosophy.

If you, the reader, represent a large company, why would you choose a small company to service your transport needs?

As an SME, we are reactive to clients’ requirements. Somewhat of a swathing generalisation I agree, but large companies can be slower to respond than SMEs, the latter being nimble, and whose decision making processes can usually be immediate rather than the often arduous processes incumbent to the larger company.

We add value too. We do not simply process jobs in ‘conveyor belt’ manner, waiting for the pub to open at home time, but really do care about what we do, and how we go about it. I have a dislike for many, often overused, analogies (and many acronyms for that matter of fact – different story), but we really do think ‘outside the box’ when it comes to finding different, often unusual, solutions to clients’ problems. It’s inside us. It’s our business ethic. We strive to please. After all, financially, we often cannot compete, which is why our service levels have to be at the highest level possible.

I won’t say that we don’t make mistakes. We do. But we do our damnedest to learn by them. We have built our reputation as being reliable, honest, and knowledgeable in all that we do. But we don’t know everything. We keep on learning, and adapting, to new strategies and technologies relating to our business. And every ounce of new knowledge benefits our clients.

We welcome new opportunities, which is why we would like to hear from you. There is nothing to lose, but maybe something to gain.

For further information on patenting your inventions contact Robert GregoryEmail: [email protected] or Tel: 0151 709 3961

Should you be looking again at how you patent your inventions?The Government plans to give companies that make use of the patent system the opportunity to significantly reduce their tax burden.

From April 2013 onwards, profits placed in the “Patent Box” may, according to draft legislation, be subject to a special lower rate of corporation tax. If your products are patented, if they incorporate patented items, if they are manufactured by patented methods, or if your company uses patented technology in some other manner, then you may be able to benefit.

Worldwide profits can qualify for the Patent Box based on a UK patent alone, without the need to get involved in expensive overseas patent filing. Whether or not your company has chosen to patent in the past, if you are engaged in any form of technical innovation then you should be considering now whether patenting activities could affect your corporation tax.

The Global Experts in Process Safety

INDEPENDENT PROCESS SAFETY SERVICESProcess safety deals with the hazards associated with the storage and processing of hazardous materials that, if inappropriately handled or processed, could cause inter-alia fires, explosions and/or toxic chemical release. Accidents or incidents of these types have the potential for multiple fatalities and injuries both on and off-site, accompanied by major environmental damage.

A company’s reputation and commercial viability can be threatened by the combined social and economic impacts of an accident. Prevention of incidents and mitigating the effects of accidents, can only be achieved if a company has an effective process safety management (PSM) system and the culture to support it.

People at all levels, from the CEO to shopfloor workers, are essential components of any approach to process safety, and it is these human factors that have a strong influence on process safety management. The impact of people’s behaviour and communications – whether positive or negative – on the process safety management system is known as the process safety culture. In order to maintain a high standard of process safety management, it is vital that an organisation has a good process safety culture.

Chilworth, based in the UK, is part of DEKRA, one of the largest specialised process safety organisations in the world, providing independent

consulting, training and testing and offering global expertise with a local presence in explosion and process safety.

With an internationally recognised reputation in process safety, Chilworth has completed projects in a wide variety of countries around the world. Using highly qualified staff, we join with our business partners in the successful development and delivery of sustained improvement in process safety performance, emulating and leading best practice.

As an expert process safety company, Chilworth provided one of only two technical process safety experts to the Baker Panel investigating the Texas City refinery blast. Chilworth, therefore, has both experience and expertise to provide effective process safety support through first hand knowledge of the technologies and processes involved.

Working with a number of multi-site blue chip clients in a variety of processing industries, we operate in the petrochemical, chemical, pharmaceutical, food, drink,

paper and packaging, plastics and rubber, agrochemical and power generation sectors. With consultants operating from locations in Europe, Asia and North America, Chilworth is ideally placed to provide a harmonised global approach to process safety for our UK and multi-national customer base.

Marketing in the Chemical Industry

The chemical industry has, over the years, demonstrated many of the best aspects of professional marketing - even when industry members did not use that term, or fully recognise that they were engaged in marketing activities.

The most effective marketing people in our industry use just a few tools, but use them well. Here are two examples:

Market KnowledgeAs a matter of course, most companies monitor their key customers’ public data, including company announcements, publications, patents etc, and have always done so. The company annual report is surprisingly little used by many sales people. However, most companies could, and should, do more. Other, often underused, information resources include:

nJob vacancies and job movesnConference attendancenSponsorship of university researchnGoogle and Google AlertsnWeb-sites beyond the first pagenFormal and informal networksnCustomer Surveys

It is sensible to build in a formal customer survey process every few years, choosing a method (email, phone, face-to-face) which suits the customers. The knowledge gained can be extraordinarily powerful, driving strategy in technical, commercial and manufacturing functions.

Marketing Tools and TechniquesPractitioners now recognise the importance of business-to-business (b2b) marketing, and produce guidance, case studies and examples directed towards b2b marketing rather than business-to-consumer (b2c) marketing. The first relevant books on b2b marketing are being written, and the Chartered Institute of Marketing provides basic guidance on techniques to improve the professionalism of b2b activities.

Spending time thinking about markets and customers is every bit as important as the technical and production aspects of our business. The resources – staff with marketing skills, consultants and written guidance – are available, and can deliver real business benefits to the chemical industry.

MANAGING WASTE PROVIDING SOLUTIONSTRADEBE are the UK’s largest hazardous waste management company with 18 sites in the UK annually processing in excess of 400,000 tonnes of waste each year.

TRADEBE provides specialist hazardous and non-hazardous waste management, recycling, recovery and disposal services throughout the United Kingdom, for both bulk and packaged waste.

Working through a national network of treatment facilities and transfer stations, TRADEBE offers a customised “one stop shop” solution to waste management from Recycling through to High Temperature Incineration. Our objective is to deliver cost effective, flexible and technology driven solutions to evolving hazardous and non hazardous waste processing requirements.

TRADEBE actively promote the European Waste Hierarchy and firmly believe that when we are able to offer a better environmental solution that we can also offer better pricing. Even turning waste costs into waste revenues!

An example of this is where a fine chemical manufacturer came to TRADEBE looking for a disposal solution for a 3000 tonne waste stream. After working with the customer’s production and process engineering team, TRADEBE were able to offer a recycling route for the waste stream which meant that approximately 75% of the waste material was able to be returned to the customer for re-use on their processes. This meant that the saving is not just £210,000 which was the potential disposal cost but also a further £200,000 in raw material costs.

To see if TRADEBE can offer you a better solution than your current waste services provider for any of your waste streams please contact them on 0845 603 2893 , send an e-mail to [email protected] or visit the website www.TRADEBE.co.uk

40 Years of ExcellenceK Home International (KHI) a leading independent provider of multi discipline engineering services is celebrating its fourth decade of successfully delivering engineering projects throughout the world.

In 1973, a determined Ken Home took the bold decision to establish his own business and quickly developed a loyal client base in the North East region. Forty years later the company now operating globally across a diverse range of industrial sectors has secured millions of pounds worth of fees, employed hundreds of staff and trained over fifty young apprentices during its business life.

From its offices in Teesside, the privately owned company now provides comprehensive world class engineering design solutions, from concept through to beneficial operation, for developers and operators of process and infrastructure projects.

KHI has successfully delivered capital projects up to £70m for the UK process industry on an Engineering, Procurement and Construction Management (EPCM) basis. Over the past eight years the company’s project services division has been strengthened and now comprises a core team providing procurement, planning and cost engineering. The construction management team combines experience with a “hands-n” approach to getting the job built safely, within budget and on time. In addition, and

where required by the client KHI can also take on the roles of Principle Contractor and CDM Coordinator.

With clients ranging from Rio Tinto to Huntsman, spanning the UK to South Korea, and across varying sectors including chemicals, oil and gas, through mining and metals to infrastructure, the firm stands by its integration of current health, safety and environmental legislation as fundamental to its success. This success has been recognized by both clients and industry bodies alike and has been rewarded with a multitude of accolades.

Although KHI provides its service to clients around the globe it has always ensured that close relationships with its UK based clients have been maintained particularly in the Northern sector of the country. This focused attention has resulted in long term relationships being developed that are based on traditional values of honesty and openness. As with any company KHI has had to adapt its services to the changing needs of the market place, in many cases our development has lead to clients being able to source an even wider range of services.

The North East regions process sector has and continues to provide KHI with significant support in term of project and engineering business and is proud to be associated with many of the blue chip companies that reside in the area. Past and present clients include; ConocoPhillips, Ineos, Growhow, BASF, TATA Steel, Victrex and Air Products.

Current projects include working with Wilton based Lotte Chemical UK, providing non-core plant design services for the new 200ktpa Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) plant. The project, which will more than double the current production capacity at the site, is due to commence production during quarter three 2013.

The firm has also been appointed by Huntsman Tioxide in support of the Improved Chlorinator Efficiency project, providing design and construction work for the build of new reactors at the pigments site in Hartlepool, the first of which will also be ready for commission later this year.

In recent years there has been a sustained effort to expand the geographical reach of the company within the UK and




success has been particularly noticeable in the North West region which is home to many business’s similar to those found on Teesside. During the past five years significant projects have been undertaken by KHI for many North West based clients including; Eastman Chemicals, Johnson Matthey, Indorama, GrowHow, AGC Asahi Glass and Novelis.

Going GreenDeveloping new business streams is vital to the ongoing success and it is no surprise that KHI has become involved in the emerging low carbon industry and the projects that have arisen. KHI has applied its engineering skills to a succession of ‘green’ plants in recent years, including bio-diesel, bio-ethanol plants, bio-mass and energy from waste (EfW) projects.

A good example is the recent award of contract for detailed design work of the off-plots supporting Air Products energy-from-waste plant. The 50MW advanced gasification plant, the world’s largest, will divert 350,000 metric tonnes of non-recyclable waste from landfill per annum, generating enough electricity to power 50,000 homes.

Health, Safety and Environment EthosCentral to the company’s success is KHIs commitment to safety, health and the environmental by making QSHE standards the first priority in all of its operations. Their competence in this area is based upon successful management and full compliance to QSHE legislation over many years and confirmed by its safety record.

An outstanding track record in the prevention of accidents and ill health was recognised by the RoSPA Occupational

Health and Safety Awards in 2012, winning a Gold Award in the annual scheme, which is the largest and longest-running awards programme of its kind in the UK.

The company recently surpassed over 2 million man-hours in the past five years without lost time accident and in 2012 the Conoco Phillips Teesside Operation awarded KHI recognition for a recordable injury free year.

Future FocusToday, and into the future the company continues to focus on delivering its core services to UK industry and beyond. Everyone involved in the company is proud that it is a home grown local company providing flexible, cost effective, multi discipline engineering, project and construction management services.

In joining Chemical North West it is our hope that via its events and networking opportunities the engineering design services offered by KHI will be recognised by potential clients active in the process sector and will considered as a cost effective alternative to existing suppliers of design services.

For 40 years K Home International has provided bespoke engineering design solutions to its clients nationally and internationally.

Services provided by K Home International include;

n Feasibility Studiesn Front End Engineering Designn Project Managementn Risk Managementn Construction Managementn Procurementn 3D Modelling and Visualisationn Cost Estimating and Controln Multi-discipline Designn QSHE and CDM Management

Byotrol is a revolution in hygiene: it delivers a powerful level of germ protection that not only outlasts all the leading competitors, it does so gently.

What makes Byotrol different from the rest is the combination of its three main attributes:

•Powerful

•Gentle

•Long lasting

Byotrol’s revolutionary action outperforms the competition by combining a physical action that pulls germs apart and then utterly destroys them with a chemical attack. Once dry it creates an invisible long-lasting barrier that continues to protect hands and surfaces against germs, long after traditional products have stopped working. Revolutionary long-lasting antimicrobial performance and broad spectrum kill means that Byotrol can be incorporated into a vast number of products and industries all over the world.

CSS is based, alongside a cluster of several other chemical companies, at Blackley, North Manchester. The company’s mainstream interests are contract research and contract synthesis, often (though not exclusively) with a special emphasis on coloured molecules. Additionally we undertake process development, as well as provide a range of speciality test fabrics.

Typically for contract research, the background information is outlined by the customer and an agreed programme is then compiled and undertaken by Colour Synthesis Solutions Ltd. However this format may be varied. The company has invented several products which have been successfully commercialised by our clients, and other materials are presently being scaled up and will shortly reach the market.

In the area of accident prevention we go beyond conventional behavioural safety to address the underlying systems causes of human error in process operations. We have developed an integrated process called the Human Factors Workbench that enables errors to be predicted, by analysing the ways in which tasks are actually carried out. The same tool allows incidents to be analysed to identify systems causes and develop strategies to prevent a recurrence. Our approach also solves procedures compliance problems by actively involving the workforce in identifying the best ways to perform operational tasks.

Would you take the easy option?

Excluding people with whom you disagree might lead to easier meetings but your conclusions can be superficial and quick to de-rail. Sound solutions demand input from all your stakeholders, where great ideas can be forged in the heat of disagreement. Managing that process requires a level of skill:

•In setting the scene so that you are all agreed on what has to be done;

•In facilitating the discussion to steer a path towards results;

•In working effectively with your people so that doubts are raised and novel ideas are shared, so that the end result benefits from everyone’s contribution;

•In turning a level of good will, interest and enthusiasm into commitment and actions that get done.

Use our services to facilitate the occasional tricky situation where it matters that you all agree on the way forward; or when you need to inspire your team; or when you recognise you need to develop your own skills to produce better results yourself. Whatever your choice, aim higher with Thought into Action.

Working in conjunction with “Wickland Westcott”; Steve has repeatedly demonstrated his deep understanding of both the industry and it’s financial and operational constraints and his many successfully placed candidates bear testament to that broad experience.
