Kevin Walsh the Chief Executive of Chemishield

Whether you work in a small lab, a giant pharmaceutical company, academia or other research facilities, you’ll be aware of the strict rules surrounding how chemical waste needs to be disposed of. Kevin Walsh witnessed a chemical accident when the wrong chemical waste was mixed with a highly volatile substance and it encouraged him to set up a company to ensure other labs don’t make the same mistake. His company is called Chemishield and it announced last week that it’s employing a further 50 people to expand their business globally. Kevin Walsh is the Chief Executive of Chemishield and joined Joe in studio this morning.
