The build
A site written for a technical buyer
Specs, materials, tolerances and capacity laid out in the terms a buyer already searches with — so they can qualify you without an enquiry, and enquire already half-scoped.
Process, Chemicals & Coatings
A technical buyer choosing an industrial chemical wants two documents before they’ll even enquire — the technical datasheet that proves it does the job, and the safety datasheet that tells their EHS team how to handle it.
Most chemical-manufacturer sites hide both behind a "request info" form, which is exactly the friction that sends the buyer (and the AI they’re asking) to a competitor who published theirs. I build indexable TDS and SDS libraries and a product page per grade, so buyers, distributors and AI can find, read and specify your products. Then I make it obvious how to buy — direct, bulk, or through your distributor network.
What I'd build you
The build
Specs, materials, tolerances and capacity laid out in the terms a buyer already searches with — so they can qualify you without an enquiry, and enquire already half-scoped.
Found
A page per process, material and sector instead of one “Services” page — every one its own door into the site, matched to how buyers search rather than how the business is organised.
Asked for
Buyers ask an assistant before they ask a supplier, and it quotes whoever actually answered. Question-led content and structured data put your words in that answer.
Measured, not claimed
2.9s.
Time to main content on a phone, against 6.9s for the median of 5 comparable firms.
Reported
Speed, search visibility and enquiry volume measured on a regular cycle and reported back — so the site is answerable for something rather than just existing.
What I build for industrial chemicals
A product page per grade with technical datasheet, application data, key properties and pack sizes
An indexable SDS library with GHS classification, findable by product name and by AI
Application and industry pages that match a buyer’s problem to the right product
A distributor / where-to-buy map and a technical-enquiry, bulk or sample-request flow
What manufacturers ask before they hire me. If yours is not here, ask it — the answer is usually short.
I build a page per grade with its properties, application data and pack sizes, so a buyer searching for a specific chemistry or performance matches to your product instead of a broad catalogue page that ranks for nothing.
I publish your TDS and SDS as indexable pages and downloads, not buried PDFs, so buyers, their EHS teams and AI assistants can find and read them — which is often the step that gets you shortlisted at all.
Yes — safety and compliance data get structured pages tied to each product, so the information a buyer’s procurement and safety review needs is there before they ask.
I build a where-to-buy / distributor path so a buyer who finds you online is routed to the right stockist, which keeps your channel happy while still capturing the direct technical enquiries.
An enquiry flow captures the product, application, volume and any technical question up front, so your technical team responds to a qualified request rather than a blank "please call".
Application and industry pages target the problem a buyer is trying to solve, so someone searching for a treatment or performance outcome is matched to the right grade instead of having to already know your product code.
If you sell standard packs to smaller accounts, a store with live stock can be worth it; for bulk and specified supply, a technical enquiry and distributor route fits better. I build to your actual mix, not a template.

Opinion
If your best trade customers still order by phone, it isn't loyalty — it's habit, and habits move to whoever removes the friction first. Here's what shifts it.
How-to
For technical products, the datasheet is what a buyer uses to choose. Locking it in an unfindable PDF hands the enquiry to a competitor who published theirs.
