About REFA Chemical Industry
- Built on 25 Years of Industry Expertise
- Our Story
REFA - Research Engineered Formulation & Applications — was formally established in 2021 by Dr. Md Saifuddin Siddiqui — but the story begins long before that
With over 25 years of hands-on experience in the Indian specialty chemicals industry, Dr. Saifuddin spent decades working closely with manufacturers across auto components, cookware, electronics and process industries — understanding their cleaning challenges from the inside out.
What he observed was a persistent problem. Indian manufacturers were still heavily dependent on traditional solvent-based cleaning chemicals — hazardous, environmentally damaging, and increasingly misaligned with global quality and compliance standards. The market needed a better alternative. A water-based, eco-friendly, high-performance solution that didn’t compromise on results.
That insight became REFA Chemical Industry.
Founded with a clear mission — to replace solvent-based chemicals with safer, biodegradable, RoHS compliant water-based alternatives — REFA launched with a single product segment: precision metal degreasing chemicals. The response from the market was immediate. Manufacturers who had struggled with hazardous solvents found in REFA a technically superior, environmentally responsible alternative that actually performed better.
From that single product, REFA has grown into a comprehensive specialty chemicals company with 100+ products across 10+ industries, serving 50+ manufacturers pan India and exporting to 7+ countries including UAE, Jordan, Malaysia, Indonesia, South Korea and Bangladesh.
Today REFA Chemical Industry operates from its manufacturing unit in Greater Noida and marketing office in Noida — with a 30+ member team, in-house R&D capability, and the ambition to become India’s most trusted precision cleaning chemicals brand.

- MANUFACTURING & R&D
Where Quality is Made
Every REFA product is manufactured at our dedicated facility in Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh — under strict quality controls from raw material procurement to finished product dispatch.
Unlike trading companies that source from third-party manufacturers, REFA controls the entire production process in-house. This means:
- Consistent quality batch after batch
- Faster customization when customers need modified formulations
- Direct traceability from raw material to finished product
- Rapid response to quality concerns without third-party delays
R&D Capability
REFA’s in-house R&D team works directly with customers to develop customized cleaning formulations for specific applications. Whether it’s a unique metal alloy, a specialized cleaning machine, or a non-standard contamination type — our chemists can develop a solution tailored to your exact process.
Send us your component and contamination details. We’ll develop a formulation, run trials, and deliver results.
