Welcome to Cornelius Group plc

We are not simply one of the leading distributors of speciality chemicals in the UK and Ireland, but a vibrant and energetic business that has identified how using its own Research and Development facility alongside highly skilled technical staff has added value to our suppliers and customers alike.
We operate across important market sectors affecting consumer issues such as health, personal care, food, cosmetics etc; and also industrial markets such as surface coatings, plastics, rubber, composites and many more.
Maintaining our position in the marketplace has been achieved through a combination of intelligent planning and staff capability. Identifying new markets, sourcing new global suppliers, adopting the highest standards possible and harnessing technology to best effect doesn’t happen by chance; neither can it be delivered without a workforce committed to delivering a service where being 'good' is never enough!
This website is our showcase of innovation, value and service – it is a statement of both our achievements to date and intent for the future.
Historically, our main markets have always been the UK and Ireland but over the last few years we have been focussing on increasing our export activity.

We also have in place warehousing and logistic support in strategic locations throughout the region This enables us to offer our European customers the same excellent levels of service as enjoyed by our UK customers.
