Chemishield announces 50 jobs and investment from Envetec CEO
Chemishield, the digital platform which is transforming chemical waste management and disposal in laboratories, has announced the creation of 50 new roles across its Irish operation. The company has also announced that Malcolm Bell, the CEO of Envetec Sustainable Technologies, has made a strategic investment in the company and joined its board of directors.
The new hires will support Chemishield’s next phase of growth, which includes expanding into North America, increased customer acquisition, and new product development.
As the founder and CEO of Envetec, Bell spearheaded the implementation of clean technologies that enable global organisations to transition from outdated, traditional waste practices to circular, data-driven solutions for treating regulated medical waste.
“Malcolm’s decision to join Chemishield highlights the scale of the opportunity ahead,” said Kevin Walsh, founder and CEO of Chemishield. “We are changing how chemical and lab waste is managed at its source, and Malcolm’s strategic insight, proven track record, and experience scaling companies will be essential as we grow our platform and expand our partnerships.”
Chemishield’s cloud-based platform replaces outdated, manual systems with user-friendly digital tools that automate waste classification, regulatory labeling, and compliance reporting in real time. Designed for safety and simplicity, the software helps organizations reduce risk, cut costs, and meet ESG goals while supporting their broader digital transformation agendas.
“Chemishield sits at the intersection of safety, sustainability, and digital transformation,” said Malcolm Bell, founder and CEO of Envetec. “The platform delivers clear value for labs and research-intensive industries by making compliance effortless and intuitive. With rising demand across essential industries, Chemishield is uniquely positioned to scale and set a new benchmark for compliance, safety, and operational efficiency.”
Chemishield focuses on key sectors, including pharmaceuticals, healthcare, life sciences, and food and beverages. Its waste segregation module is the first of its kind, enabling EH&S and lab teams to eliminate errors at the source while enhancing data capture and waste stream traceability.
