Our four business sectors aim to provide complimenting specialisms that cover industrial/general chemicals, metal surface treatment, food and beverage ingredients and chemical packing and fulfilment services.



Chemical manufacturing and distribution
Established in 1973 by founder Brian Chadwick, Airedale Chemical remains an independent family-owned business providing both manufactured and distributed chemical product solutions. The success and growth of Airedale Chemical over nearly 5 decades has enabled the creation of Airedale Group and with it, diversification into new, high-growth industries.
