New ADR legislation
was introduced,
inspiring founder John
Piddington to establish
Hazchem with a clear
vision: Keeping workers
safe on the road.
Following a change in
management direction,
Hazchem expanded its
product range to
include a broader
selection of PPE,
Workwear, and
Safety Signage.
The HAZTEC® brand
was launched, with
Hazchem securing
manufacturing
capability to deliver
more comfortable
inherent FR fabrics.
As customer operations
grew in size and
complexity, Hazchem
developed Lynx Order
Management, a bespoke
system delivering
tailored, easy-to-use
online ordering.

became a key supplier to
the petrochemical and

expanding the business
into the Offshore &
Marine industry.
Hazchem relocated to a
new Distribution Centre
in Buckingham, England,
tripling warehouse
capacity and launching

Hazchem played a vital
role in supplying PPE
to frontline workers
during a period of
unprecedented
demand.
