Lab Training for 'Alchemy Champions'

We started the month on a high, opening our lab doors to colleagues from Elementis for a day of discovery. 

The session centred around our Alchemy product range, giving their team a deeper dive into what makes our ingredients stand out - and plenty of hands-on time to see the results themselves.

Training, Teamwork and Darts

We were thrilled to welcome our new distributors from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland to our Ascot site for a dedicated product training session.

It was an opportunity to build relationships face-to-face, share knowledge, and ensure the team feel confident and equipped to represent our products. 

After a productive day in the lab, the group rounded things off with a friendly game of darts.

From the Meeting Room to the Races

What better way to close what has been a truly memorable month than with the full team together?

We gathered in Ascot for a company meeting before swapping the boardroom for the racecourse for an afternoon at Ascot Races. 

It's safe to say we know how to round off a busy month in style.
