A future-oriented company with tradition
Since the foundation of the "Chemische Fabrik Tübingen" in 1953 by Reinhold Beitlich, today's CHT Group, more than 70 years later, has developed into a globally active group of companies. With a focus on specialty chemicals as function providers, auxiliaries and additives for industrial processes, today almost 2,500 employees in 28 companies contribute to the company's success. The CHT Group operates very close to its customers and markets. Together with its own representatives, the company provides products and services for customers in over 120 countries on all continents.
Then as now, the headquarters and the competence centers of the business fields are located in the university town of Tübingen at CHT Germany GmbH. CHT Switzerland AG is responsible for the dye range including state-of-the-art production in Montlingen (Switzerland). The corresponding competence center is also located here.
Starting from the German production plants in Dußlingen, Oyten, Geretsried and Kirchberg, we provide our products for the world market.

To always be one step ahead of the needs of the market, to not only meet the demands of our customers, but to always go that little bit further - these are the demands we make on ourselves. Constant innovation, customer-oriented product developments and outstanding service for our customers - that is the CHT Group. Smart Chemistry with Character.
