Developing a CMS Website for a Heat Treatment Chemical Manufacturer by Nichetech

The client is a well-established manufacturer and exporter of heat treatment chemicals with over 5 decades of experience in supplying industrial-grade quenching oils, rust preventives, carburizing compounds, and specialty chemicals to major OEMs, engineering firms, and metal treatment facilities. With growing international demand and a need to present a more professional digital image, the company partnered with Nichetech to redesign and rebuild their corporate website.

Key problems

The client’s previous website was outdated, lacked mobile responsiveness, and did not reflect the company’s technical capabilities or global reach. It also lacked a content management system, forcing reliance on third-party vendors for even basic updates. Key challenges included:

 

  • Lack of product categorization and technical documentation online
     
  • No CMS, making content updates cumbersome
     
  • Poor SEO performance and outdated web technologies
     
  • Inadequate contact and inquiry forms
     
  • Non-responsive design, causing high mobile bounce rates

 

Objectives 


The client aimed to:
 

  • Develop a modern, responsive website with a robust backend CMS.
     
  • Showcase a comprehensive product catalog with datasheets and specifications.
     
  • Enable their in-house team to manage content independently.
     
  • Improve search engine visibility for international buyers and partners.
     
  • Provide a structured inquiry form for lead generation.
     
  • Enhance brand image and digital credibility for global partnerships.
