INDUSTRY MASTER CATALOG
Search a catalog that you can trust
SpecialChem maintains the global master catalogs for the following five industry verticals: adhesive ingredients, coating ingredients, cosmetic ingredients, plastics and elastomers, and polymer additives.
These master catalogs include all products from all suppliers worldwide, making it the most comprehensive resource available. Product data is sourced directly from manufacturers and updated daily.
Behind the scenes, several dozen chemical experts systematically review every product, monitor each new release, and track the latest mergers and acquisitions. This ongoing work ensures that you always have access to the most accurate, up-to-date, and reliable information—so you can make confident decisions, faster.
