Naturally successful – successful, of course
From a fine soap factory to a specialist in natural cosmetics: The success story of SPEICK Naturkosmetik began in 1928 with the introduction of the classic Speick soap, a trademark of the family business from Stuttgart. The salmon-colored soap with its characteristic scent and the extract of the Speick plant from the Carinthian Nock Mountains was a groundbreaking innovation in body care at the time, as it not only cleaned but also cared for the skin.
Speick Original Soap is no longer the company’s only flagship product. The product range currently includes around 140 items, including deodorants, shower gels, shampoos, face creams and micellar water, all of which are manufactured at the exclusive location in Leinfelden-Echterdingen. The company’s popularity is growing steadily as customers appreciate the naturalness of the products.
Compressed air is of crucial importance in the manufacturing processes of the cosmetics industry and is used in a wide range of applications. It is generally used for cleaning systems and containers, filling cosmetic products, transporting ingredients, operating packaging systems and soap production, among other things. To ensure that the use of compressed air does not pose any risks to the manufacturing process and the quality of the end products, the compressed air must be comprehensively treated and continuously monitored. Contaminants such as particles, moisture, germs or oil aerosols must be effectively controlled, as they can enter the compressed air system in various ways.
In order to keep up with production and produce as energy-efficiently as possible, SPEICK Naturkosmetik has updated its compressed air supply with the help of FILCOM GmbH and technology from KAESER Kompressoren SE. For energy and economic reasons, it was decided to replace the three existing screw compressors that were spread across the production area and thus minimize the time required for troubleshooting.
