Anti Corrosion Cement Specialists Limited (ACCS Ltd) has been operating in the anti-corrosion market for over 50 years. Previously known under trading names such as Greenbrook Cements, KemKor, Greenbank Engineering and FW Howarth-(ARC), we have been manufacturing and supplying protective linings to the chemical industry around the world.
Since the first inception of high quality and long-lasting corrosion resistance, silica and silica-derivatives have been at the forefront of protective technology. ACCS Ltd utilises this naturally occurring material in a large number of protective applications depending on the process and environmental conditions.
In the past, ACCS Ltd was the main manufacturer of NORI branded mortars and screeding materials for the NORI Brick company (also known as Accrington Brick) – famed for their strength and durability. Today we continue to manufacture the same materials under our own brand names, and we have also introduced new products to complement our impressive range. Traditionally dealing in cementitious mortars and screeds, we continue to innovate and have expanded the Company through the use of more modern materials such as epoxies, and vinylesters resins which provide extreme chemical resistance to a wider variety of corrosive substances.
ACCS Ltd specialises in high quality corrosion, thermal and abrasion-resistant materials, helping customers across the world who are involved in the processing and storage of acidic and alkaline (basic) materials.
We supply to a wide variety of industries, ranging from heavy chemical and petrochemical to nuclear processing, mining, and food preparation.
Technical and Design Excellence
We offer technical assistance in the design or enhancement of any corrosion management system, with experienced personnel using sophisticated CAD systems to provide unparalleled support in the development stages.
Health, Safety, Environmental & Quality Compliance
Our office and factory staff are highly trained in packaging, quality control and shipment of goods both within the UK and for export, and are fully compliant with the latest Health, Safety and Environmental regulations.
We are fully certified with BS EN ISO 9001:2015 protocols.
In 2008 ACCS Ltd began to be incorporated into the Minchem Group. The Minchem Group comprises of four wholly owned and independent companies, namely Minchem Ltd, Minchem Europe Srl, Minchem HMP Ltd and ACCS Ltd. All four companies operate in the minerals and chemical fields (as our name suggests), providing a range of niche products and services for special applications in diverse markets.
Our world-class expertise dates back over 50 years and encompasses long-established technologies through to new, state-of-the-art technologies, providing high-tech solutions to today’s demanding raw material selection and application processes.
In our efforts to remain resilient to the ever-changing market and provide the highest level of service to our clients, in 2019 we set up Minchem Europe Srl in Milan, Italy. This company was specifically set up to assist the general activities of Minchem Ltd (and the Minchem Group as a whole) in dealing with issues associated with REACH registrations and Brexit.
