De Dietrich and SFE Process have announced a strategic partnership.
Together, they are combining their expertise to offer manufacturers more efficient, sustainable and cost-effective solutions.
An alliance based on shared values
Behind this collaboration lies primarly a meeting between two French companies that share the same demand for quality and the same ambition for their customers. De Dietrich, a leading equipment and engineering supplier to the chemical, green chemicals, pharmaceutical, food and waste recycling indust ries, and SFE Process, a recognised specialist in supercritical CO₂ technologies, are joining forces to develop solutions tailored to current and future industrial needs. Their objective: to offer manufacturers high-performance, sustainable production tools that are optimised for their specific applications.
A green and profitable technology
Supercritical CO₂ is a technology already recognised for its low environmental impact. What sets SFE Process apart is its ability to offer both extraction solutions (SFE) and purification solutions (using SFC chromatography, which is faster and more economical than the old HPLCs), optimising each process to minimise CO₂ and energy consumption. This approach results in more economical solutions, with a very competitive OPEX compared with petrochemical or natural solvent technologies. It also makes it possible to reduce process steps while complying with the most stringent environmental requirements. By drawing on SFE Process' expertise in custom process development, De Dietrich is strengthening its offering and providing its customers with solutions that are perfectly suited to their industrial challenges.
Applications at the heart of industrial innovation
This alliance paves the way for strategic developments in several cutting-edge sectors. The pharmaceutical industry, for example, is looking for new solutions to separate and purify its APIs more efficiently and at lower cost. SFE Process' technologies offer a more cost-effective alternative to HPLC chromatography.
Vegetable extraction, which is widely used in cosmetics and perfumery, also benefits from these solutions to obtain high-quality extracts without solvent residues. Similarly, chemical recycling is booming, and supercritical CO₂ solutions offer promising prospects for the recovery of precious materials.
A stronger industrial commitment
This partnership enables SFE Process to benefit from De Dietrich's industrial strength and experience, particularly when it comes to responding to large-scale projects. For its part, De Dietrich is strengthening its position with a partnership based on trust. Thanks to this alliance, their customers can move forward faster and with greater security, by guaranteeing them even more robust, sustainable industrial solutions tailored to their needs.
De Dietrich and SFE Process share the same approach: to offer their customers innovative and reliable solutions, with quality and industrial standards at the forefront. Together, they are opening up new horizons for manufacturers seeking more efficient and sustainable processes, in line with the ecological and economic challenges of tomorrow.
