Field Operator

Who we are

Kisuma (with 100+ FTEs) is the leading global supplier of synthetic layered double hydroxides (commonly referred to as 'hydrotalcites') for plastics.

We asked our colleagues what makes working at Kisuma so enjoyable? From this, a few core values emerged: together, professional, developing and caring. Professionalism, commitment and continuity are central to our corporate culture. This is reflected, among other things, in a flat organisational structure and the desire to keep developing the organisation and its employees.
