Membrane electrolysis

The new membrane electrolysis installation has modernised the technology of chlorine production. This product is the base for many technological lines at PCC Rokita, and in particular for the key business of our company, i.e. the production of polyols, for which chlorine-based propylene oxide is the basic raw material. Today, the membrane method of chlorine production is the most technologically advanced, least burdensome for the environment and allows for significant reduction of production costs.

New plant Sulphated II

On 31 July 2008, a new plant called "Sulphated 2" was opened, worth PLN 90 million. Thanks to this investment, the company has quadrupled its production capacity of surfactants, used, among others, for the production of cleaning products and cosmetic products.

Obtaining integrated environmental permits

The permits shall specify the conditions of use of the environment (emissions of gases or dust discharged into the air, introduction of sewage into water or soil, generation of waste). Without meeting these requirements, the company would not be able to conduct production activities.

Start of operations in the subzone WSSE

PCC Rokita SA receives a permit to conduct business activity in the Brzeg Dolny Subzone of the Walbrzych Special Economic Zone "INVEST-PARK" Sp. z o.o. This allows the use of a tax credit in the amount of up to 50% of expenses for new investments in the zone.

The company becomes a sole shareholder company of the State Treasury; the name Zakłady Chemiczne Rokita SA

Construction of sulphate plants

The sulphate installation is still in use today. Surfactants produced in it are used to produce, among others, cosmetics and cleaning agents.

Construction of the Biological Wastewater Treatment Plant

The construction of the Biological Wastewater Treatment Plant began in 1978. The completion of this investment has significantly improved the plant's sewage situation.

Start-up of the polyether plant and change of name to Nadodrza Organic Industry Plant "Organika-Rokita".

10 thousand tons per year is the initial production capacity of the polyether installation. In the 1980s, the plant was extended by a second production line, increasing the capacity by another 20 thousand tonnes.

Separation of the Research Department and commissioning of a new heat and power plant

In the 60's, the plant's product range was expanding very dynamically, especially in the area of auxiliary materials. Moreover, the modern CHP plant was equipped with 2 pulverised fuel boilers. The heating member provided heating not only to the factory but also to the city.

Construction of the Central Wastewater Treatment Plant

The Central Wastewater Treatment Plant was built for 5 years. It was a typical mechanical treatment plant, thanks to which the plant's sewage situation improved significantly.

Factory expansion

Commissioning of further plants: sulfuryl chloride, acetic acid anhydride, formalin, ethylene and synthetic tannins.

Acquisition of the plant by the Organic and Pharmaceutical Industry Association in Łódź

The plants were taken over by the Organic and Pharmaceutical Industry Association in Łódź and given a new name "Anorgana Chemical Plant in Reconstruction".

The plant takes the name Rokita and launches its first historical production facility.

The first production installation was historically launched at the end of 1946. The first product was sodium hypochlorite and the chlorine reserves left by the Germans were used to produce it.

The plant was handed over to the authorities of Brzeg Dolny commune by the Soviet Command of War Crimes.

On 17.10.1945 the first operational group arrives to the plant together with Zdojewski, MA, who takes over the management. The first aim of the group is to secure the plant property.

Commissioning of a chlorine plant

A number of key plant installations are being put into operation. These include a chlorine, chlorobenzene and dispersant plant. These products are manufactured to this day.
