We are committed to making a positive difference in the communities where we operate and empowering our people to do the same. At Innospec, each employee is entitled to one paid volunteering day each year, giving them the flexibility to support a local cause that is meaningful to them.

Last week, five colleagues from our Innospec Performance Chemicals R&T team chose to use their volunteering day to support Passion for Learning, a charity focused on expanding educational opportunities for children in the local area. As part of the Greener Futures Campaign at Meadow Primary School, the team helped revitalize outdoor learning spaces through gardening and weeding activities, creating a greener, more welcoming environment for young students.

A big thank you to the team for their time, energy, and commitment to making a real difference locally.

We recognize that biodiversity is fundamental to the health of the ecosystems we all depend on, providing food, clean water, fuel and countless other essential services that support our daily lives. That is why we continue to invest in initiatives that protect, restore and enhance natural habitats both on our sites and within our local communities.

Across our global sites, our teams are advancing key biodiversity initiatives, from creating a new wildflower meadow in partnership with the Cheshire Wildlife Trust at our Ellesmere Port site in the UK, and planting over 3,900 tree saplings at our site in Herne, Germany, to supporting community tree planting projects across the US. Our Vernon, France site also sponsors local beehives to help protect vital pollinators.

Across all these initiatives, our goal is to contribute to a more resilient ecosystem in the areas where we operate. We are proud of our teams and partners who help make this possible.

We are committed to

We are committed to building the next generation of leaders by equipping our people with the knowledge, skills and opportunities they need to grow and drive our business forward. Through structured succession planning and continuous learning, we support our employees in developing and advancing their careers.

Josh Riley joined Innospec in 2017 as a Technical Service Chemist in Ellesmere Port, UK. He later moved into Performance Chemicals as a Product Specialist, before progressing into a hybrid Product/Sales role in 2024. By October 2024, Josh transitioned fully into Sales as a Junior Sales Manager and now covering the Middle East and Africa.

Josh’s progression reflects our commitment to helping employees build diverse, rewarding careers, encouraging them to explore new opportunities, broaden their experience, and unlock their full potential.

We are proud of Josh and all our colleagues who continue to shape the Innospec’s future. Together, we’re building a resilient, innovative organisation, powered by talent, strengthened through ongoing development and the opportunities they pursue.

At Innospec, safety is a shared responsibility and a defining part of how we operate. Every day, our teams demonstrate that a strong safety culture is built not only through procedures and systems, but on vigilance, ownership, and the choices we each make before a task even begins.

Now in its ninth year, our Journey to Zero Harm (JTZH) program remains a cornerstone of that culture. This company wide program empowers employees to take personal accountability for safety through a simple but powerful habit: carrying out a 60 second check. Before starting any task, each person pauses to assess risks, consider controls, and ensure that the work can be done safely. At sites including Ellesmere Port, Midland and Pleasanton, the “Safe Employee of the Year” award acknowledges individuals whose consistent actions reinforce a safety-first mindset.

In 2025, we recognized three exceptional colleagues whose actions exemplify our commitment to zero harm. Congratulations to Paul Holland, Nathan Holman and Raul Hernandez for their exceptional contributions. Their leadership, vigilance, and commitment to doing the right thing highlight the strength of our safety culture and the collective responsibility that drives our Journey to Zero Harm program forward.

We are excited to share a major milestone in Innospec’s journey of growth and innovation. Work has now started on our new administrative offices at our European headquarters in Cheshire, UK, an investment that reflects our long term commitment to creating an exceptional workplace for our people.

The new office has been thoughtfully designed to offer a modern, inspiring, and highly functional working environment. At the heart of the building is a spacious, light filled atrium that draws natural daylight deep into the workspace, supporting wellbeing, improving usability and fostering greater collaboration.

Beyond the building itself, the wider site will undergo a significant landscape transformation. New biodiversity areas, welcoming arrival pathways and a strengthened site identity will create a cohesive environment for employees, customers, and visitors. These enhancements reflect our commitment to sustainability, operational excellence, and a workplace designed to support the future growth of Innospec.

This milestone marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for our Ellesmere Port Site as we continue to invest in our people, our facilities, and our future.
