Integrity BioChem and ICD Group form biobased surfactants company for Australia’s mining industry

In Perth, Integrity BioChem has partnered with ICD BioChem, a newly formed company in the ICD Group of companies, that will bring Integrity BioChem’s biobased mining technology platform to the rapidly growing Australian mining market. 

ICD BioChem, with operational and technical support from Integrity BioChem, is building a biobased chemical manufacturing facility in Perth that will produce biobased surfactants to supply Australia’s mining, industrial, HI&I, and personal care sectors with high-performance, lower-environmental impact alternatives.

“Partnering with ICD BioChem represents an important step in producing the IBC surfactants and chemical solutions where they are needed most,” said William Gibbs, SVP Integrity Mining and Industrial, in a press statement. “The IBC product line is designed to meet the rigorous performance needs in heavy-industrial applications and reduce ecological impact — bringing local manufacturing to Australia will help mining companies access these benefits at scale.”
