The liquid chemical specialists
Australian made car wash, truck wash and detailing chemicals
Liquichem is an Australian chemical manufacturer based in Wetherill Park, NSW, in Sydney's west. We make car wash, truck wash, snow foam, heavy duty degreaser, wheel cleaner, tyre dressing, glass cleaner and all purpose cleaner, and supply cleaning chemicals and solvents alongside them. We sell direct to businesses, resellers and everyday customers, Australia wide, from 1L bottles through to 20L drums, 200L drums and 1000L IBCs.

Our story
Why we started making automotive cleaning chemicals
A premium product without the premium price. That was the idea at the start and it still is.
How it started
Liquichem opened its doors in July 2025, after roughly two years of planning, testing and formulation work behind the scenes. We spent that time developing the formulas rather than rushing product onto a shelf.
Two things pushed us into manufacturing. Demand for automotive cleaning products was there and growing, and the businesses using them every day were paying a lot for them. On top of that, very few suppliers in Australia were selling those products in bulk at a price that made sense. Australia runs on trucks and cars, and every one of them needs washing and detailing.
Where it's at now
We manufacture our own range at Wetherill Park and supply it direct as well as through the businesses that stock it. Alongside what we make, we supply cleaning chemicals and solvents that we buy in and, in some cases, repack into our own sizes. We keep that distinction clear rather than badging everything as ours.
Orders go out Australia wide with local pickup from the site, and there is no minimum order. A single 1L bottle and a pallet of 20L drums go through the same checkout.
Manufacturing
Chemical manufacturing at Wetherill Park, Sydney
The products we manufacture are formulated, blended, filled and packed at our Sydney site. They are made to established formulations using set batch processes, so one production run matches the next.
Raw materials are sourced from both Australian and overseas suppliers, which is normal for chemical manufacturing.
Items we supply or repack are clearly separate from the products we manufacture. If you need to confirm how a particular product is made, or where it comes from, before you buy or resell it, ask us and we'll tell you straight. There is more detail on our Australian made page.
The range
What we manufacture and supply
Some of the range is concentrated and some is ready to use. The label on every container states which it is, and gives the dilution rates where a product needs diluting. Browse the full range.
Manufactured at Wetherill Park
Car wash, truck wash and snow foam
Vehicle wash concentrates for buckets, foam cannons and wash bays, from single vehicles to full fleets.
Heavy duty degreasers
Degreasers for engine bays, workshop floors, plant and equipment, and the jobs a general cleaner won't shift.
Wheel cleaner and tyre dressing
Wheel cleaner for brake dust and road grime, and silicone tyre dressing for the finish at the end of the job.
Interior, glass and all purpose
Dash and trim restorer, streak free glass cleaner and all purpose cleaner for interiors, surfaces and general cleaning.
Supplied and repacked
Not everything we sell is blended by us
Alongside the range we manufacture, we supply products we buy in and, in some cases, repack into our own sizes. We label that difference rather than hide it, so you always know what you're buying.
Solvents including IPA
Isopropyl alcohol (IPA) and similar solvents, sourced and repacked into our sizes rather than blended at our site.
General cleaning chemicals
Cleaning products we supply alongside our own range so you can order everything from one place. Ask us what we can source for you.
Bulk and pack sizes Most lines run in 1L, 5L and 20L, and you can buy those through the checkout. The 1L suits trial and home use, 5L is working stock and 20L is the working drum for regular users and wash bays. For larger volumes we also do 200L drums and 1000L IBCs, priced online with pallet freight quoted after you order. Available sizes vary by product, so check the individual product page, or see bulk supply for repeat-order pricing.
Who we supply
Trade quality, open to everyone
Our products are made to hold up under daily commercial use. That doesn't mean you need a business to buy them. Order one bottle or a pallet, the product is the same.
Businesses
Transport companies, truck fleets, workshops, warehouses, factories, cleaning contractors and hospitality sites going through product week in, week out.
Professional users
Detailers, mobile car washers and truck washers who need consistent results and a sensible cost per vehicle.
Resellers and stockists
Retailers, auto shops and supply businesses putting the range on their own shelves. See the reseller page for how it works.
Everyday customers
Anyone washing their own car, ute, 4WD, bike or boat, or cleaning their own home, shed or workshop, who would rather use what the professionals use.
Why Liquichem
What you get when you order
Products for the actual job. A focused range rather than a catalogue of near identical products, so choosing the right one is straightforward.
Pack sizes that suit you. 1L to try it, 5L for working stock, 20L for regular use, and 200L drums or 1000L IBCs for volume. Available sizes vary by product.
Clear directions on the label. Every container states whether the product is concentrated or ready to use, with dilution rates where they apply.
Safety Data Sheets. Available for the range, for your own compliance records and site requirements.
Direct product support. Questions about an application or a dilution go to the people who make and pack the product. Common ones are answered in the FAQ.
Australia wide delivery and local pickup. Freight is calculated at checkout, and you can collect from Wetherill Park. See shipping and delivery.
