i-CHESS is a custom manufacturer of specialty and fine chemical intermediates and caters to niche markets. i-CHESS also offers selected natural products
We love to make molecules that are not commonly made and require "intelligent chemical solutions".
We carry out research and development as well as production in India. Our customers are based predominantly in – but not limited to - the western world.
Our customers are both small and mid-sized companies, as well as large multinational organisations. We are happy to serve the global chemical community!
i-CHESS was formed in 2006 by Christopher Bluemel, a German national. He previously worked 18 years for Bayer in various businesses and countries.
i-CHESS aims to cover the gap between different cultures. We develop and manufacture molecules that are not commonly made and require “Intelligent Chemical Solutions”. Being a mid sized company, we would typically enter markets to break existing monopoly supply situations and aim at a status as tier-2-supplier. We carry out research & development as well as production in India.
i-CHESS is known for its healthy obsession for details during development and manufacturing process, as well as its wider perspective when considering a project.
i-CHESS is committed to "doing well by doing good". We avoid processes that have a negative effect on the environment. Significant process improvement is a mandatory must for all our products.
We will go for new business only if it is sustainable and "measurably better" if there is a “greener way”, we will always opt for that.
We feel responsible for the not so privileged and actively support various charities, both on a continuous basis as well as various projects. “Empowering” is probably one of the best ways to make a difference.
We develop & manufacture chemical intermediates! How can we help you?
We work in partnership with chemical and non-chemical companies, agencies, distributors, individuals, public organisations and anyone else that is looking to complete their skill set in the space of chemicals and natural products. This allows us to be the best at what we do and what we enjoy doing most. Are you looking for a partnership? You have come to the right place!
need a chemical partner?
A well designed chemical should be of high quality, cost-effective, timely delivered and safe. It should enable you to strengthen your product portfolio and make better end-products. The demands and complexity in the chemical world have risen considerably over the past years, (and will continue to do so), leaving many behind. Let's try and fix that!
need a chemical molecule?
We are catering to all types of industries in the natural product space and deliver products ranging from leaves and tailor made cuts to powders, essentials and oils. We have found that the customers biggest challenge is to have the right quality product with the right certification and continued consistency. We have been through the process countless times. We will get you through!
need a natural product?
Converting surplus products into something useful with a value is one of our strong points, that we feel very passionate about. Integrating available product with in-house engineered plants into something meaningful? We have done it before. If you can't think of it, we'll find a way.

i-CHESS is aware that we live in a hyper-competitive world. Better overall processes are thus key to success.
Innovation goes beyond having and selecting a good idea. It also means to translate the idea into real concepts, real actions, real prototypes and ultimately real products.
Innovation is an essential part of our DNA and company culture. i-CHESS could file – as of today - for more than 50 process patents
A best process is a well-defined method that contributes to a successful step in product development. i-CHESS is not looking for incremental changes but “challenges existing paradigms” in order to make a real difference.
Our customers are increasingly demanding and expect significant productivity gains, new ideas and growth opportunities. Customers nowadays expect generation of major savings in time and money, and lowering risk by avoiding mistakes made by other companies.
i-CHESS’ best processes come from all corners of the globe and from every industry and culture. Successfully adopting them and converting them into realities is our job. As an intermediate supplier we understand that driving growth is our customers first priority.
We are always on the lookout for talented professionals to join our growing team.
