Proudly Indigenous owned and operated, Chemrose was conceived out of the directors’ passion and desire to support and empower the custodians of the land. At the helm of Chemrose are Directors Matt Rose and George Rose. Matt and George are proud Gamilaroi men from Walgett NSW and are respected and well-known for their passion and commitment to Aboriginal empowerment. The brothers are committed to continuing their family’s legacy of bringing change in the community and seek to achieve this by creating opportunities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the cleaning industry.
George Rose is a former professional rugby league player, an NRL Premiership winner with 151 first grade games behind him. George is completing a Master of Commerce at The University of Sydney, Television presenter on NITV’s number one sports program and the face of No Limit Boxing, Australia’s number one Boxing promotion company which he runs alongside brothers Trent and Matt.
Matt Rose manages the careers of Australia’s highest profile NRL stars. He built No Limit Boxing from the ground up. He holds a double degree from Charles Sturt University. Matt has been ranked in the top 100 most influential people in Australian Sport and top 100 most influential people in Sydney.
With forward thinking leaders who care for community and environment, and with customer demand for safe and non-toxic cleaning products rising, certification by a credible independent organisation such as GECA validates these customer expectations. Chemrose consider an ongoing partnership with GECA as an integral part of future growth.
The GECA mark builds an extra level of trust, both in the products and in company capabilities. This third-party certification places Chemrose in a favourable position when seeking corporate and government contracts. Chemrose provides diverse levels of soft services, including washroom consumables and chemicals from premium to basic standards. Incorporating GECA’s strict formulation guidelines across these products ensures current and future products provide a cleaning alternative that is better for both people and the planet.
The Rose brothers have built a strong reputation in business with great success in all that they do, this success stems from a strong work ethic, a passion to exceed expectations and cultural pride never forgetting who they are and where they come from. In addition to GECA certification, Chemrose is also Supply Nation certified. With a focus on quality, consistency, and value, the aim is to build long-lasting, mutually beneficial relationships with clients. Buying from Chemrose means supporting the extended families and communities of thousands of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and contributing directly to the empowerment of the original custodians of this land.
