Safety & Environment
FIS Chemicals are dedicated to upholding the highest standards for safety and the environment.
Whether it's our staff, our customers, visitors to our HQ, or simply anyone who utilises a product manufactured or supplied by FIS, our top priority is always safety and welfare. This responsibility extends to our approach to 'green chemistry' — and our industry-leading environmental credentials are underpinned by careful decision-making, close adherence to protocols and a genuine commitment to going the extra mile to achieve cleaner, greener results.
We uphold rigorous standards in every aspect of our operation, and have achieved ISO certification across a range of key areas — ensuring that each department, process and action is governed and delivered responsibly and with the attention to quality that our customers have come to expect.

The installation of both a wind turbine and solar PV at our premises is used to offset against the existing electric usage and demand – lowering energy costs, reducing reliance on the national grid and making use of clean, green energy on-site.
The Practical Route to a Lower Carbon Footprint
In 2009, FIS installed a wind turbine on our Aberdeenshire premises, and the following year a solar PV array was added to the site — offering two forms of clean, green energy to offset our electricity usage from the national grid. This kind of pragmatic and invested approach typifies our outlook as a business — purposeful, solutions-led and committed.
We work with a number of customers who are pursuing Net Zero goals, and are always open to discussing ways to achieve this through smarter chemistry.
