Welcome to KORN
KORN GmbH is an owner-managed, midsize family-run business located in Hamburg, Germany. Founder Erwin Korn laid the foundation for the company when he started his chemical business in 1932, focusing at a very early stage on organic and very ecological raw materials. We’ve kept the tradition alive to this day.
For over forty years, we have developed, produced and sold chemical products for the food and beverage industry, the service sector, industrial enterprises, and energy suppliers. Our philosophy is: as natural as possible with only as many chemicals as necessary.
Efficient water treatment
Today, KORN develops, produces, and markets high-performance conditioning products for efficient and ecological water treatment including highly concentrated and extremely efficient additives for boiler water, cooling water, and bottle cleaning applications as well as the accompanying system technology. We deliver quality — made in Hamburg, Germany.

Through research & development, strong industrial partners, and personal service, we enable our customers to considerably reduce their annual energy, water, and chemical costs. Our tailored solutions enhance the productivity and longevity of industrial water systems while reducing failures and costly downtime — with economical and ecological products.

It adds up — to success
Ecological products don’t have to be more expensive than conventional solutions. In fact with KORN, the opposite is true — our perfect combination of efficiency and sustainability gives you a cost advantage. Our products are developed to deliver a superior value, not merely a cheaper price per kilogram. Calculate the total cost including water, chemicals, and energy, and you’ll see how our approach pays off.
