Alfa Chemicals Nordic

Our sister Company, Alfa Chemicals Nordic ApS was established in 2018 in Copenhagen, Denmark to serve customers in the Nordic region and the wider European continent.

Cityscape over central Copenhagen: the colorful and "hyggelige" area of Christianshavn and the Freetown Christiania. The yellow, orange and green autumn colours gives an atmospheric feel of the shifting season.  The numerous green areas and parks makes it easy to find a little pice of nature and quietness within this capital city. Indeed, the high priority of native plants and trees within this smart city supports high biodiversity and thus also the WHO´s global Sustainable Development Goals. Image shot with drone.
