What Chemisky does

Chemisky Co., Ltd. (주)케미스카이) is a specialized South Korean B2B distributor of laboratory and process engineering equipment, founded in 2014 and headquartered in Anyang-si, Gyeonggi-do. The company imports and resells capital equipment from international manufacturers — primarily based in Germany, the UK, and the USA — covering precision temperature control (Huber), automated synthesis and flow chemistry systems (Radleys, Vapourtec, Ehrfeld, AM Technology, STOLI Chem, CREAFLOW), supercritical CO2 extraction (Core Separations), thin film evaporation and filtration/drying (NORMAG, SMS, PSL), microwave moisture/density measurement (TEWS), high-pressure components (HiP), and catalytic reactor technology (SpinChem). The portfolio is organized around four process pillars — separation, purification, reaction, and extraction — enabling Chemisky to offer integrated one-stop process solutions spanning laboratory to pilot scale.

Chemisky serves five vertical segments: chemical and pharmaceutical manufacturers (primary), food/cosmetics/bio industries, semiconductor manufacturers, battery and advanced materials producers, and research laboratories/academic institutions. The company operates from its Anyang headquarters and a Daejeon branch office established in 2020, with a sales-led go-to-market motion that combines dedicated sales managers per product category, direct field sales, trade exhibition participation (KOREA LAB, SEMICON KOREA, KOREA CHEM, SEDEX, WATER KOREA), and technical seminars/webinars on specialized topics.

The business model is one-time equipment sales complemented by after-sales service (A/S), technical consultation, and pre-sale engagement tools including demo loans and sample testing; pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Chemisky operates as a subsidiary of Marktech Co., Ltd. (주)마텍무역), a diversified Korean trading conglomerate, with which it co-exhibits at industry events. The company employs approximately 9 people and has been recognized as a Korean Good Taxpayer (성실납세자) for 5 consecutive years (2018-2022).
