About us

The commencement of business activities by Spiess-Urania Chemicals GmbH dates back to 1815. Owing to changing worldwide markets, the organisation and structure were brought in line accordingly.

• In 1999, the two companies C.F. Spiess & Sohn GmbH, Kleinkarlbach and Urania Chemicals GmbH, Hamburg merged under the name Spiess-Urania Chemicals GmbH, Hamburg.
• In 2002, Mitsui started investing in the company and became the sole shareholder in 2004.
• In 2018, the plant protection division of Spiess-Urania was spun-off and merged with Certis Europe.

As a subsidiary of an internationally established trading group, we at Spiess-Urania Chemicals GmbH focus on copper chemicals for a successful business.









Since the acquisition of the Kocide business in the USA by Mitsui Co., Ltd. in 2014, Spiess-Urania Chemicals GmbH has more recently taken over the functional leadership of these two copper salt producing entities. For more information about Kocide products please refer to:
