RIFAD supplies the raw materials manufacturers depend on, and the technical know-how to use them well. From polyurethane foam to plastics, coatings, food and water treatment, we combine reliable supply with expertise built over 16 years of working with factories across Africa and the Middle East.
The right chemistry is never just a product code. We look at how you produce, what your customers expect and where your costs sit, then recommend the grade, the supplier and the logistics that fit. Producers gain a serious partner in new markets; factories gain a supplier who answers technical questions as fast as commercial ones.
See the industries we serve →Polyurethane and foam are our technical specialty. The same sourcing, quality control and logistics serve every industry below.
PURaw materials for flexible and rigid foam: mattresses, furniture, automotive, insulation panels and spray foam, with hands-on technical support from formulation to the production line.
PLResins, plasticizers and additives for compounding, pipes, film and molded products.
CSBinders, solvents and additives for decorative, industrial and protective coatings.
FDFood-grade ingredients and processing chemicals, supplied with the certificates your audits require.
WTCoagulants, flocculants and treatment chemicals for municipal and industrial water.
Factories call us when a foam collapses, a batch cures too fast or a new density needs a new recipe. We help select the right raw materials, review formulations with you, support trials and trace problems back to their cause.
For producers, this means their materials are introduced properly and perform as promised in every new market we open.
