Fine chemicals, also referred to as specification chemicals, are a class of chemicals that is characterized by their low volume use and higher price as compared to that commodity chemicals. These complex, pure chemicals are manufactured in limited quantities and according to exacting specifications for their intended application.

Fine chemicals are produced in batches as against continuous production which is practiced for bulk chemicals. Moreover, manufacture of fine chemicals involves the conversion of basic chemicals into complexes which serve as building blocks in a variety of applications across diverse industries such as agrochemicals, paints, and coatings, electronics, pharmaceuticals among others.

Agrochemicals and active pharmaceutical ingredients are the most common chemicals covered under Fine chemicals. Fine chemicals differ from specialty chemicals in that, these fine chemicals are sold primarily based on ‘what these chemicals are’ as opposed to specialty chemicals which are sold based on ‘what those chemicals can do’.
