• INNOVATIVE FILTER TECHNOLOGY

    In today's high-technology world ever-increasing requirements are being placed on highly efficient filter technologies. One of the greatest challenges facing us in future will for example, be the provision of clean water for drinking. But increasing air pollution, contamination inside buildings and unknown toxic substances to which military and civil protection forces are exposed are also becoming increasingly challenging problems.

  • CORPORATE VIDEO

    Blücher GmbH in Erkrath can look back over a company history that spans forty years. Still family-owned, this well established, traditional firm has always maintained it's high standards. Protecting life, health and the environment play a central role in all the company's activities.

  • CATALYSIS

    In order to meet the demands in the modern production of special-purpose chemicals, pharmaceuticals, aromas, etc., catalytic reactions and processes have to be designed so that they are more effective, more selective and more energy-efficient. For this purpose, it is necessary to optimize the corresponding substrates for catalytically active materials in order to improve process control or to generate the catalytically active substances in nanoclusters on the substrates using appropriate procedures. The polymer-based spherical activated carbons made by Blücher meet precisely these requirements.

  • GOLD ENRICHMENT

    Gold has always been highly desired, and still plays an important role in every society – whether as a piece of jewelry, in use in special medical products and in microelectronics, or as an investment. For the extraction of precious metals, nuggets are a thing of the past; other technologies had to be developed. However, these technologies still do not make it possible to extract almost all the gold present in the ore – significant amounts are lost in the process. At Blücher, we are working on preventing such losses.

  • ABOUT BLÜCHER

    The company's core business is the development and manufacture of highly efficient filter systems comprising spherical, high-performance adsorbers which function in a similar manner to activated carbon but which are many times more effective. Toxic and other undesirable substances are reliably filtered out of gases and liquids and securely bound. Drawing upon our many years' experience in the development and manufacture of protective equipment for the military sector and civil protection organisations, we are now expanding into industrial and medical applications for our technology.
     
    Blücher's technologies and systems are solely produced in cutting-edge manufacturing facilities in Germany and the USA. The whole production process, from taking delivery of the raw materials, making intermediate products right through to developing complex system solutions, is carried out in-house. Everything we do is very tightly and continuously monitored and controlled in our own laboratories. The company employs 190 staff at its facilities around the world.
