Leading Solvents - Degreasers & Cleaners
Leading Solvents was established in 1986 and has grown and evolved over this period to become one of the major manufacturers & distributors of solvents and chemicals in the UK. The acquisition of BIG Supplies in October 2018 provided the company with its own distribution channel, and more recently the purchase of Solvents With Safety in 2020 has expanded our production facilities to better accommodate our growing customer base. The company runs its own internal transport and logistics and employs 80+ people across several sites in Yorkshire.
