Selchem has 9 different companies that form part of the Holdings Group, with paint coatings representing over 75% of its total revenue.
Selchem Coatings is broken into two divisions namely; Project coatings and Retail coatings.
Project coatings:
Project
coatings
are
taylor
produced
coatings
formulated
through
Selchem
laboratories
for
companies
who
face
unique
challenges,
where
catalogue
coating
companies
are
not
able
to
provide
solutions
for
their
unique
environment,
be
it
for
structural
steel
rust,
rising
damp,
acid
resistant
coatings,
insect repellent coatings, fire retardants, along with a host of others.
Selchem
covers
a
vast
array
of
industry
sectors
ranging
from
hotel/casino,
housing
estates,
agricultural,
food

as
well
as

to name but a few.
Retail coatings:

are

to
provide
for
permanent
coating
solutions.
Selchem
does
not
reproduce
existing
technology,
for
this
reason
all our products are patented.
It therefore would come as no surprise that Selchem produce coatings for some of the world's largest corporates on an exclusive basis.
The other 25% of Selchem.
Selchem,
through
the
years
initially
outsourced
many
of
its
services,
such
as
its
IT
hardware/
software
,
programing,
courier
services,
staff
vehicles,
aviation
services,
solvent
supply
and
brokerage.
Selchem
made
the
descion
rather
than
outsourcing,
to
aquire
these
companies
and
operate
them
as
independent self owned enterprises operating under the Selchem Holdings banner.
These
include,
Solvent
Technologies,
Selchem
IT
Solutions,
Africa
Wide
Fleet
Services,
Used
Car
Rental,
Selchem
Aviation,
ABMS
Management
Solutions and Selchem Brokers. Silhouette Yachts being the only company to fall into the group us purely because of the C.E.O's passion for yachting.
Although these companies are allied to Selchems core Coating business, they are driven with the same passion and growth expectation.

SELCHEM NO CLAIMS
Selchem
has
been
producing
polyurethanes
and
various
other
high
technology
product
coatings,
through
itself
and
its historical other enterprises since the late 1990's.
Selchems
claim
for
lifetime
and
permanent
coating
solutions
seems
impossible
to
perceive
to
the
human
mind.
Selchem
have had over 3 decades to prove their company statement.
What
stands
out
the
most
with
Selchem
and
cannot
be
argued,
is
the
fact
that
over
the
3
decade
period,
Selchem
has never had a single claim against the company.
SELCHEM PERMANENT
When
Selchem
made
mention
it
produced
a
lifetime
warranty
on
coatings,
it
was
not
taken
seriously,
in
fact
rather
than
gaining
clients,
it
was
loosing
market
share.
The
name
"Lifetime"
in
its
Decorative,
Industrial,
Commercial,
Food
&
Farming
sectors,
was
renamed
"Permanent
Coating
Solutions",
this
terminology
has
been
better understood and well accepted.
By
simply
representing
Selchem
differently,
has
seen
the
company
growth
expanding
exponentially.(The
Lifetime
Guarantee
representations
in
the
Selchem
Automotive and Trucking Coatings however has not changed )
Selchem
has
been
asked
as
to
what
the
difference
is
in
terms
of
its
'Lifetime
Warranty'
branded
product
to
that
of
its
'Permanent
Solution'
products,
the
answer is; they are one and the same.
So the big question is, what does Selchem define as a 'Permanent Solution?'
Its
a
coating
produced
to
last
as
long
as
the
structure,
not
that
based
on
a
person's life expectancy, with all due respect, this could be one day.
