What SOLVIK INTERNACIONAL does

SOLVIK INTERNACIONAL (legal name: Compañía Solvik Internacional S.A. de C.V.) is a privately held Mexican industrial company founded in 1978 and headquartered in Tlalnepantla de Baz, Estado de México, specializing in compressed air treatment and purification. The company's core offering spans the full compressed air value chain — compressors, filtration elements and housings, refrigerated and adsorption dryers, condensate management, and measurement instrumentation — augmented by industrial energy solutions including cogeneration systems and CO2-refrigerant heat pumps. Its technology base combines proprietary manufacturing of ULTRAFILTER-brand dryers and filters in Germany (since 2016) with exclusive Mexican representation of multiple established German brands including BEKO, MANN+HUMMEL, KELTEC, CS-Instruments, 2G Energy, DÜRR-Thermea, and BOGE. Patented and proprietary technologies include the everMatic control system, BEKO VarioFlow hot-gas-bypass valves, mass thermal heat exchanger dryers delivering >80% energy savings, and PREMIUM+ nanofiber filter elements claiming 99.99999% efficiency with up to 70% energy cost reduction. The company serves industrial manufacturing customers across Mexico (with secondary distribution to other countries) through four branch locations operating since 1999, an enterprise field-sales motion, authorized distribution partnerships, and recurring service and spare-parts revenue. Service offerings include preventive and corrective maintenance for compressors and dryers across multiple OEM brands (Atlas Copco, Gardner Denver, Sullair, Quincy, Kaeser, Ingersoll Rand, CompAir), air quality measurement compliant with ISO 8573-1 (2010) and ISO 22000, and a training center with PLC Siemens Simatic S7 test cabinets. Pricing is quote-based across hardware, services, spare parts, and training, consistent with project-driven industrial sales rather than transactional or SaaS distribution.
