Tata Chemicals Europe’s headquarters are in Northwich, Cheshire, where it has two sites – Northwich East and Northwich West – on either side of the town at Lostock and Winnington. The company employs 500 people. We are one of the world’s leading manufacturers and suppliers of sodium carbonate (soda ash), sodium bicarbonate and associated alkaline products.

The principal product is soda ash, of which we are the UK’s sole manufacturer. We are also one of the world’s leading producers of refined sodium bicarbonate and calcium chloride liquor. Soda ash is a vital ingredient in a wide range of manufacturing processes, including those for glass, detergents and industrial chemicals. Sodium bicarbonate is used in the manufacture of a diverse range of products, including pharmaceuticals, haemodialysis, bakery products and personal care products such as toothpaste.

Originally formed in 1873 by John Brunner and Ludwig Mond, the company was one of the founders of ICI in 1926. It was re-created as Brunner Mond in 1991 and has supported an extensive programme of investment in its products, plant, people and customer service.
