Are you an engineer of the future?
Chemistry is used so much in manufacturing. Local companies are at the forefront of polymer and chemical technology. The range of products is vast from things like sealants & adhesives for the construction industry to anti-terrorist security barriers, from playground surfaces to coatings for wind turbines, from solutions to make the planet safer and greener to helping farmers improve their crops. Companies are constantly using research and development to stretch knowledge and continuously improve products to use more recycled materials and help to make manufacturing more environmentally friendly and safe for generations in the future.
