Background of Merchem

History of Mercury Chemicals

Mercury Chemicals Pte Ltd was founded in 1972, by Mr Lai Shee Lum, a Chemical Engineer who had the foresight of taping on the then booming chemical market. He aimed to become a regional stockist and supplier of industrial and fine chemicals.

From our humble beginnings of one warehouse, we have expanded to our present location of two warehouses, at 14th Fourth Lok Yang Road. As such, we are able to provide quick and efficient delivery throughout Singapore, as well as carry and stock the many chemicals that our customers require.

Aside from that, in our bid to serve our customers better, we have also managed to secure the agency of several prestigious international brandnames, such as Union Camp, Oxychem and Solvay, so as to provide recognised, top quality products to our customers.

Mission Statement

We strive to become a reliable distributor of quality products at competitive prices with prompt delivery services.
