To register, you need to sign up your company as well as at least one individual user. Later, more individual users can be added under the same company.
First, you register an individual account with the user's name, email and a password (phone number is optional).
Then, you register your company with the company's name, address and VAT number. Please note that each company can only be registered once as a buyer and once as a supplier.
CheMondis is a digital marketplace for the chemical industry, starting off in the European market. However, we do welcome any international company that comply with European and International regulations.
To assure a high quality of all market participants, we verify that each newly registered user/company has a legitimate interest in either supplying or buying chemical products.
Your company can use CheMondis to both buy and sell chemical products.
However, to comply with anti-trust law, two separate accounts are required: one buyer account and one seller account. The accounts must be assigned to different people inside your organization.
It is not possible to register the same user as both buyer and supplier.
An Instant Deal is the direct purchasing option on CheMondis. Product availability, price and available packaging sizes are displayed on the marketplace for potential buyers. This way they can take immediate purchasing decisions.
For you as a seller Instant Deals might offer more attractive margins.Shipment should happen as soon as possible as lead time should not exceed 5 business days.
The incoterm for Instant Deal is always EXW.
A Quote Request allows an individual negotiation of the incoterm, price and delivery date between you and the buyer.
Instead of directly purchasing via Instant Deal, your buyer gets in touch with you via messaging and individually negotiates the purchasing terms. This can also include long-term agreements consisting of multiple shipments.
After any registration, the CheMondis team personally verifies each newly registered company to ensure that the CheMondis marketplace is a trusted environment with trustable users and companies.
We perform a basic background check with the help of public registers and check for any known compliance issues in the past.
After the verification process (usually 1-3 business days) CheMondis will inform you and your account will be fully activated to perform transactions on the marketplace.
There are currently three possible ways to search for products on CheMondis. (1) The search bar, (2) by industries and (3) by product groups. All approaches can be used individually or combined.
To show you how to use all three most effectively, we have prepared a short video tutorial. Watch the tutorial here.
Every company registered in Europe has a unique value added tax (VAT) identification number. You can find it on the tax statement, or you can call the tax authorities.
We are working hard to expand our product listings on CheMondis as fast as possible. If you are looking for a product, which is not yet listed on the marketplace, please get in touch with our chemical product management team via support@chemondis.com.
We will do our best to find appropriate alternative suppliers for you and list their products as soon as possible.
No, prices are not mandatory, and you can also upload products without a price.
However, your product will not be available for buyers via Instant Deal then and can only be sold via individual Quote Requests, usually with smaller margins.
In any case we strongly advise you to enter information about the availability of the product, since this might determine whether your potential new customers request a quote or not.
We generally advise you to use both the Instant Deal and the Quote Requests.
The Instant Deal is a good tool to show customers that your product is available, to give price and packaging indications and to give customers who need immediate shipment the opportunity to perform a purchase without further interactions.
The Quote Request is used by customers when they want to change Incoterms, negotiate prices and have other questions.
You can take all necessary steps to list your products on CheMondis in the administration tool. To directly go to the administration tool, you can log in here.
