Our History

Salters and Chemistry

In 1918 the Salters' Company founded the Salters' Institute of Industrial Chemistry, initially to assist young chemistry students returning from the First World War to complete their training. The Salters' Institute now aims to promote the appreciation of chemistry and related sciences among the young, and to encourage careers in teaching of chemistry and in the UK chemical and allied industries.
