Allied Colloids began manufacturing at the Bradford site over 40 years ago. In 1997, it was acquired by Ciba. Today it is one of the largest and most productive single site chemical plants in the UK. The annual output of the site is over 250,000 tonnes of which 84% is exported.

The site primarily manufactures products used to enhance industrial processing in various industries such as papermaking, mining, oil extraction, wastewater treatment and textile processing. It also manufactures ingredients that are used in home and personal care products such as thickening agents.

The site is approximately 50 acres with 11 main production facilities. It has an excellent safety and environmental record and enjoys strong links with the local community. Many staff involve themselves in local projects and charity fundraising for local causes.

Of the 945 workforce, many have been recruited through the long-established links with local schools and colleges. The Company has access to well-developed courses in science and engineering leading to degree qualifications and many of the sites senior management team have been developed through this scheme.

Situated on the banks of the river Humber, the Grimsby site has a further 50 acres of space. It employs around 50 people and again, many were recruited locally. The site is self-sufficient but can call on additional support from Bradford site, which is just 85 miles away and connected by convenient and fast motorway access. Grimsby manufactures products similar to those in Bradford and it also has an excellent safety and environmental record.
