Dober entered the wastewater treatment market in the early 1980s by providing synthetic and environmentally friendly chemicals and technical service to the food processing and industrial laundry industries. This business segment evolved into what is known today as GreenFloc® Technologies.

The Pharmaceutical Division opened in 1986, debuting as an equipment supplier of portable clean-in-place units branded as Chematic CIP’s In 1995, Dober sold its Chematic CIP equipment technology and renewed its’ focus on providing chemicals for critical cleaning applications.

Dober entered the commercial laundry detergent market in the 1990s In 1994 Dober opened a second manufacturing facility in Glenwood, Illinois, to accommodate the growing needs of the business. At the same time, Dober began to develop software for commercial laundry customers that helped these facilities operate more efficiently. For over a decade, these software offerings were part of the value-added package our laundry customers would receive when they purchased chemicals from Dober.

Initially acquired to better serve our east coast commercial laundry customers, a world-class manufacturing facility was constructed in Hazleton, Pennsylvania in 2004. This site now produces liquids for Dober Chemical’s Cooling Systems Division and GreenFloc® Division.
