SOKOFLOK, s.r.o. is the domestic supplier of highly effective organic flocculants, coagulants, and other special chemicals for water treatment and purification.
SOKOFLOK, s.r.o. was founded at the turn of 1991/1992 as a company with foreign ownership interest between a.s. Chemical plants Sokolov and the French company The SNF Group based in Andrézieux.
During its more than twenty-five years of operation, SOKOFLOK has established itself on the market of the Czech and Slovak Republics, mainly thanks to the top quality of the products supplied by the French manufacturer SNF s.a.s. (A member of the SNF Group) and by providing high-quality technical and application services. Its integral part is also the selection and supply of suitable machinery and technological equipment, enabling highly efficient deployment and use of the supplied products.
APPLICATIONS
Wastewater Treatment
The offered range of coagulants and flocculants covers the widest range of possible applications in the wastewater treatment process, from use in pre-treatment, reduction of the substance load of the biological stage, support of sedimentation, and thickening and dewatering of sludge. As part of the product offer, the selection of suitable means for the application and subsequent technical support is also carried out.
Drinking Water Treatment
We offer coagulants and flocculants that meet the requirements for substances in contact with food. For these substances, we also have certificates confirming the possibility of their use in the operation of water treatment plants.
Anti-Foaming Agents
We offer a wide range of means that suppress foaming in various cases (fugate from centrifuges, anaerobic sludge stabilization, outflow from wastewater treatment plants, etc.). Defoamers have different bases, from silicone to dispersions, water-soluble to purely organic substances. The appropriate type can be selected according to the application.
Anti-Crusting Agents
As a result of changes in technologies, dosing of chemicals, etc., the formation of inorganic growths in the bodies of centrifuges, pipes, and other mechanical problems occurs more and more often. We offer various types of means that prevent the formation of these incrustations.
Extraction of Minerals, Including Oil and Gas
In addition to classic coagulants and flocculants, used to separate solid and colloidal substances from a liquid environment, we also offer agents that adjust the viscosity, pumpability, and other rheological properties of suspensions, dispersants, and other agents.
Paper Industry
We offer a variety of soluble polymers to help with problems in wet paper production processes (water release, retention, water clarification and recycling, wastewater treatment, paint fixation, and more). New products continue to be developed to meet the specific requirements of this important industry while helping to protect the environment.
Textile Industry
For the textile industry, we offer products focused mainly on product final treatment, color processing and fixation, water recycling, and wastewater treatment.
Agriculture Industry
We offer a range of superabsorbent polymers based on polyacrylamide, which can be used in afforestation, growing seedlings, and creating landscapes. These products increase the water retention capacity for several years and reduce the need for irrigation and the loss of nutrients caused by their flushing. Another range of products is used to modify the physical properties of the soil, where both water and air penetrate better into the soil, and soil drift and erosion are reduced.
The company is ISO certified by PRO-CERT s.r.o., namely ČSN EN ISO 9001:2016 and ČSN EN ISO 14001: 2016.
The company is a long-time corporate member of the CzWA (Czech Water Association), a member of the Association of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises and Crafts CZ, Regional Chamber of Commerce.
