At Rockwood, our subsidiaries and their employees work hard every day to preserve and protect the environment by complying with relevant environmental laws and regulations. We also use our creativity and expertise to develop innovative technologies that help other companies do the same.

Sachtleben offers several unique solutions for today’s environmental challenges. Sachtleben’s Biotol Fresh is a ready-to-use, non-toxic liquid concentrate that applies a protective film over the biofilm that forms in all drains, sewers and wastewater pipes and acts as an “odor-suppressing blanket” by preventing toxic hydrogen sulfide from forming.

Another innovation, Sachtoklar P flocculants, efficiently conglomerates ultra-fine suspended and turbidity matter in drinking water, so that it can be eliminated by filtration. Sachtoklar P is based on gentle aluminum compounds and does not impair the taste of the drinking water.

Meanwhile, Southern Clay Products (SCP) works with coatings manufacturers to improve air quality by reducing emissions from paints and coatings used in our homes and workplaces, using products such as SCP’s Optiflo® VF VOC-free additives.
