I'm very new to this. Are you able to show an example for me.
For example, one cell of a table is going to have a value btween -50 and 50.
On the dashboard, if the value is between -50 and -16 I want it to say Extreme Slow Oxidiser.
If the value is between -16 and -5, moderate slow oxidiser
If the value between -5 and 0, mild slow oxidiser
If the value between 0 and 5, mild fast oxidiser
if the value between 5 and 16 moderate fast oxidiser
and if the value between 16 and 50, extreme fast oxidiser.
Thank you for your time and effory in advance.

You specified value between -50 and -16 as "Ext. Slo. Oxid" . (This means you want results for value -49 to -15 and it not includes -50 & -16. Because you specified it as between).
You also specified for the following values like -16 and -5 (This also never includes -16 and -5. It took only -15 to -4).
So if you i taken you condition of "between -50 and -16" as "greater than or equal to -50 and less than or equal to -16". If your cell has value of "-16", this will result "Ext. Slo. Oxid" only.
So i modified Faysal Al Farooqui formula, as per i told. Try this if it solves.
=LOOKUP(A1,{-50,-15,-4,1,6,17},{"Extreme Slow Oxidiser","Moderate Slow Oxidiser","Mild Slow Oxidiser","Mild Fast Oxidiser","Moderate Fast Oxidiser","Extreme Fast Oxidiser"})
