ECO-W & ECO-U

Our NEW pigment pastes

As a chemical company we take our responsibility for the environment seriously and undertake the task of developing innovative solutions which are not only high-performance solutions but also meet ecological standards. As a matter of fact, we continuously focus on ecological progress and set new standards which even go beyond legal requirements. This also includes the development of new ecological pastes. We guarantee the strict compliance with quality standards and regulations and thereby ensure that our products meet the highest requirements. With our innovative, user and environmentally friendly pastes we redefine chemical industry standards – for a sustainable future which does not only embrace the needs of today but as well those of tomorrow.

ECOLOGICAL WATER (ECO-W)
Our very innovative preservative-free series of liquid pastes for aqueous systems sets new standards in the field of sustainable coatings. With its broad field of applications, ranging from dispersion paints to varnishes, this new series of pastes redefines industry standards and can be used to color paints and varnishes to be certified in compliance with the requirements of the German Blue Angel Ecolabel.

ECOLOGICAL UNIVERSAL (ECO-U)
The first biocide-free series of liquid pastes on the market with a broad and universal range of applications both for water-based and solvent containing systems. The series of pastes can be used to color transparent varnishes, varnishes and dispersion paints

COLORANTS

The DÖRKEN range of products comprises of paste systems for aqueous or solvent containing application cycles and for decorative or industrial purposes – always at a high level of quality.

Well-founded advice is an absolute must for us at DÖRKEN regardless of whether you intend to purchase single pastes or entire tinting systems. We put our know-how at your disposal not only when you want to change your tinting system but also when you need advice regarding a change concerning the formulations.

Biocide-free – revolutionary – our new filler technologies: DÖRKEN^® DSP1, DSP2 and other innovations

Thanks to the innovative filler technologies DSP1 and DSP2 it is possible to produce preservative-free water-based formulations:

varnishes, transparent varnishes, dispersion, paints, plasters
pigment preparations
and other water-based building materials can be optimized to reach a new technological level
A stable high ph-value > 11 with buffer effect
The controlled solubility of the fillers with depot effect
The controlled salt load in the aqueous phase creates a suboptimal environment for the growth of germs

COMPONENTS

In order to obtain sustainable and environmentally sound products the production process has to be concerted in all fields. This also includes the technology behind the pastes in the form of semi-finished products. The consequent compliance with hygienic standards reduces infestations to a minimum. The whole process is further optimised by the use of functional preservative-free fillers because they create a sub-optimal environment for germs. Moreover, the stable high ph-value of approximately 11 ensures in combination with a buffer effect that the formulation’s effect remains constant. The controlled solubility of the filler guarantees a depot effect i.e. the salt load in the aqueous phase is continuously released. The targeted control of the process contributes to stabilize the formulation preventing an unwanted contamination. For our customers this signifies a strategic advantage in the field of preservative-free pastes.

With our know-how in this area we are able to create tailor-made solutions which represent a technological advantage in the field of water-based formulations. Due to these technologies and continuously enhancing them we expand our business model creating a complex range of systems and technologies.

MICROBIOLOGY

Holistic Hygiene Management

The increasing importance of hygiene during the production process is underlined by the implementation of innovative technologies which enable a real-time control and fast reactions to improve cleanliness and security of the working spaces.

Regular tests for contaminants, impurities and germs in the production environment are an integral part of an effective hygiene management to guarantee a hygienic production and consequently a constantly high level of product quality.

The continuous monitoring of hygienic standards plays a decisive role to minimize potential health risks and guarantee the quality of manufactured products.
