ADDCON GmbH

About ADDCON

The ADDCON GmbH, headquartered in Bitterfeld-Wolfen, refines organic acids and their salts under the guiding principle "leading the innovation in Green Chemistry". The product portfolio includes feed additives for silage, feeding and preservation, food additives such as ADDCON Calpro for the preservation of baked goods – produced in a patented process –, biodegradable de-icing agents (e.g. Aviform and Viaform) for airports and municipalities, as well as industrial products such as PETROFORM, HYCOOL, STRUCTURIT and ADDSORBIT, including drilling agents. The range is complemented by pwrPlanz, a plant-based supplementary feed based on flavourings, medium- and long-chain fatty acids and functional fibres for pig production. Quality is ensured by in-house laboratories and quality-controlled manufacturing methods; the products are intended to be low in contaminants. ADDCON is a member of the ESSECO GROUP and, in addition to two sites in Bitterfeld-Wolfen, operates companies in Norway, China and Hong Kong.
