Apollo Scientific supplies bulk chemicals for research, manufacturing and industrial use. If you need more than a standard catalogue pack size, our team can assess sourcing and manufacturing options for the compound you require.
We work with pharmaceutical, biotech, agrochemical, electronics and cosmetics businesses, where purity requirements and purchasing quantities vary considerably.
As part of the Central Glass Group, we have access to an international supplier network and group manufacturing facilities. Let us know what you need, where it needs to go and your preferred delivery date.

Your Bulk Chemical Supply Specialist
Quality and Compliance
Apollo Scientific holds ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications. Our UK AEO and Known Consignor status also support the customs and shipping arrangements involved in international chemical supply.
For bulk purchases, let us know what your quality or procurement team needs before approving a material or supplier. This could include particular analytical results, batch documentation or supporting supplier information.
We can review those requirements alongside the chemical specification, rather than leaving documentation questions until the order is ready to ship
Sustainability in Bulk Supply
Packaging, transport, and energy use are all part of our sustainability work. Our approach includes reviewing transport routes and using recyclable or reusable packaging where suitable.
The options for an individual shipment depend on the chemical and its handling requirements. If your organisation has specific packaging or procurement criteria, please include them in your enquiry.
You can also read more about our wider sustainability work and independently assessed performance on our corporate social responsibility page.
