The FFCh is the professional group of freelance chemists and owners of independent laboratories.

In contrast to many other structures of the GDCh, the FFCh is a professionally mixed group. You can find out more about the companies, orientation and specialisation of the individual members in the members' area.

• Laboratory services: Sampling, analyses, evaluation, consulting and everything that belongs to the field of analytics
• Expert opinions: by publicly appointed and sworn experts, commercial chemists, safety experts and others
• Consulting: from the development of new products and technologies to safety and the optimisation of operational processes
• Other services: Research, documentation, production, training and much more

The specialist group pursues the goals of scientific exchange and further training. To this end, regular training events and member meetings are held. We also encourage chemists to set up their own businesses by providing information and support.

The FFCh supports chemists who want to become self-employed, whether as laboratory owners, by setting up a production company or as freelance consultants or experts in any speciality.

The board consists of the chairman, his deputy and at least one, but no more than four assessors.
