COMPANY PROFILE
Summary
Founded in 2012, Green Chemistry LLC was born at a time when the mining industry was booming and had limited professionals with expertise in chemistry and reagents, while Mongolia was importing approximately US$350 million worth of chemicals every year, Green Chemistry LLC was founded to respond to this unmet demand. Today, Green Chemistry LLC imports three categories of chemicals: technical grade (for mining); laboratory grade (for testing and R&D); and analytical grade (used in very specific research). As we observed the demand for laboratory equipment growing alongside that for chemicals, we also began importing all lab supplies, from pipets to analytical instruments like spectrometers.
Our business lines
Green Chemistry LLC has two business lines, one is chemicals, and the other is lab equipment. Finally, our third focus is on educating the market – spreading general information about everything chemical related to increase the overall knowledge in the Mongolian chemical market; in that sense, we provide training, run workshops, and organize many large events to bring together industry professionals and exchange best practices on a yearly basis.
We represent over 70 different brands ranging from all fields covering the entire world, connecting suppliers and clients. Some of the larger brands you might have heard of: Merck, Sigma-Aldrich, Xilong Scientific, Fritsch, Thermo Fisher, Sundy, Milestone SRL, Daihan Scientific, Rocklabs, and many more.
The general misconception that most of the Mongolian population shares is that chemistry is dangerous and even poisonous. In the 2010s, the concept of green chemistry started taking root globally, so we picked up on it, driven by a vision to change the mentality in Mongolia and show the public that chemistry can be indeed, green, eco-friendly, and safe. ‘Safe chemistry is our future’ became our motto and we therefore reflected it in the name of the company.
Strategy
We continue to remain a pioneer in the chemistry field, bringing the industry together through regular events and creating digital communities via our social platforms. For example, since 2013, we have organized “Environmental safety of chemicals” training online, allowing over 1000 participants to complete a certified training over the course of two-days per year. Four ministry’s, fifteen government agencies, two universities, four NGOs, and four private companies participated in this year’s event as lecturers, held between 1-2nd December.
We usually run about 10 different large events every year for our Mongolian chemical market. For example, our “Green Chemistry-2023 state competition for theoretical and practical works in the field of chemistry” event which is the first of its kind in Mongolia and 100% privately funded, gathers attendees from many different domains and it is available to anyone interested in chemistry. Besides, Green Chemistry LLC is very active on social media, especially Facebook, and we are also working on our YouTube channel.
