Company History

Spirechem North West Ltd was originally formed by Peter Dorricott in 1994.  Peter had previously spent nearly 20 years working within Solvent Recycling and Waste Disposal Industries, and, with this wealth of experience he had gained, he felt that the time was right to set up on his own, filling a niche in the industry, forming a company where loyalty and honesty in all dealings with customers was of paramount importance. With these principles in mind, Spirechem North West Ltd was born. 

Originally, working from a converted bedroom, Peter was running all aspects of the company by himself, until in 1996, Spirechem North West Ltd moved to offices in Saltney, and at the same time, took on its first employee.  Over the next five years, Spirechem continued to grow, and, by July 2001, with three full-time employees, and one part-time, Spirechem had out-grown its offices, and moved to larger premises at our current location, Shield House in Saltney.

The move proved to be successful, and to cope with the growing demand for Spirechem’s services, more staff had to be taken on. Today, Spirechem has five full-time employees, and one part-time, all based in our Shield House offices. 

The original ideas and principles established by Peter in 1994 are still held today, and to these, the company owes its continued growth and success. The company’s focus has always been, and will always be the customer.
