Concept of Chemical Leasing
Involved Partners

In Chemical Leasing business models two partners are essential:

  1. the chemical supplier, who also produces the chemical, and
  2. the chemical user, who benefits from the chemical being used in his production process,
    although he does not apply the chemical himself (this is done by the chemical supplier)
The following stakeholders can be additional partners:
  • equipment suppliers
  • recycling/disposal companies
  • national governments
  • quality assurance institutes
  • consultancies
  • UNIDO

Role and benefits of different partners:

Industry Chemical suppliers Strengthen the relations to their clients providing them an added value in the form of technology know-how and service.
Chemical users Can concentrate on their core business, while benefiting from the service and know-how provided by their suppliers.
Equipment suppliers Enhance the process efficiency providing know-how on the best available technologies for the chemical's application. Through ChL equipment suppliers also gain access to new markets.
Recycling/disposal companies Provide important know-how on recycling and disposal technologies useful to increase the chemical's recovery rate.
National governments Can use ChL as a policy tool to improve risk management practices and extend producer responsibility.
Quality assurance institutes Provide confidence in companies offering ChL services through an independent quality assurance.
Consultancies Act as mediators between the different partners.
UNIDO Establishes an international multi-stakeholder working group. The National Cleaner Production Centres of UNIDO serve as a world wide network for the promotion of ChL.
