IKEM

IKEM is the industry and employers’ organisation for Sweden’s innovation and chemical companies. They negotiate collective agreements with the unions, provide expert advisory services, and advocate for policies that strengthen industrial competitiveness and enable the green transition.

Representing 1,200 companies with 70,000 employees, their members operate in chemicals, plastics, pharmaceuticals, refineries, biochemistry, bioengineering, and recycling, among others.

As part of the Confederation of Swedish Enterprise (Svenskt Näringsliv) and global organisations like Cefic, ECEG, FECC and EuPC, they work to influence policies that drive innovation, sustainable growth, and investment.
