- A gear to associate the profession with technology and the industry;

 

- An atom to signify the basic unit of science;

 

- A laboratory decanter and flask to associate it with chemical research, experimentation and industrial transformations;

At the base of the blue colored circular border is the word "Philippines" to clearly indicate that the chemical engineering profession is practiced in the country and stands for the good and welfare of this nation and its people."

The Office of the Secretary, Professional Regulatory Boards under the Commission shall have custody of the official seal of the Board.
