Eflochem

What Eflochem does

Eflochem, legally Eflochem Chemicals Blending Co., is a Dubai-based specialty chemicals manufacturer producing water treatment chemicals for industrial, commercial, institutional, and municipal customers across the UAE and MENA region. The company operates as a division of Eflo International (UK) and a member of Concorde-Corodex Group, an industrial conglomerate established in the UAE since 1974. Its manufacturing facility is located in Al Quoz Industrial Area 3, Dubai, with a regional sales and application footprint spanning the Gulf and selected exhibitions in Africa and South Asia.

The company maintains a comprehensive portfolio organized into twelve product categories: reverse osmosis chemicals (antiscalants, membrane cleaners, biocides), industrial cleaners, boiler water treatment, cooling water treatment, potable water treatment, wastewater and effluent treatment, biocides, swimming pool treatment, super specialty products (coolants, passivators, eco-cleaners), water testing kits and reagents (Lovibond), hand sanitizers, and surface disinfectants. Core technology is specialty chemical blending, with formulations customized to feed-water quality and plant design. Several product lines are NSF/ANSI/CAN 60 certified for drinking water applications, including antiscalants (EC-RO-710, EC-RO-16, EC-RO-21, EC-RO-26) and boiler treatments (EC-6003-CH, EC-6003-CH+, EC-T-13). The company holds ISO 9001:2015 (Quality), ISO 14001:2015 (Environmental), ISO 45001:2018 (OH&S), and GMP-aligned certifications for Eflochem Chemical Blending Co. - DXB, and operates an in-house R&D team for product development and customization.

The business model is a sales-led, direct-to-customer model operated from the Dubai manufacturing facility, supported by a technical sales and application team. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; products are sold as one-off chemical purchases rather than under subscription contracts. Customer segments are addressed horizontally, with primary focus on industrial oil, power, and manufacturing water treatment, and secondary reach into municipal, food and beverage, healthcare, education, and hospitality (via disinfectants and sanitizers). Market presence is built through regular participation in regional exhibitions (WETEX, ADIPEC, ArabLab, Aquatech, Mena District Cooling) and emerging-market events (Big 5 Kenya, Bangladesh Water Expo).
