Since 1925, Vielhauer GmbH has been a trusted name in high-quality brand lubricants. With an annual turnover of millions of liters, our success is a testament to the loyalty of our valued customers.
As we look to the future, our goal is to expand our customer base and forge stronger relationships with new partners and suppliers.

High-quality concrete release agents are essential when it comes to the quality of concrete surfaces. Drawing on decades of experience, we have developed our high-performance SOK products in close collaboration with our customers. Today, these release agents are successfully used worldwide in precast plants and in both structural and civil engineering.
The ability to provide eco-friendly, alternative water-based products as concrete release agents for nearly all applications demonstrates that quality, efficiency, and environmental awareness can be harmonized.
The product range is constantly evolving through close collaboration with users. Continuous dialogue is essential to ensure ongoing product optimization based on real-world applications. For larger quantities, customized concrete release agents can be developed to meet specific requirements. Please get in touch!
Concrete release agents consist of a base fluid in which the necessary additives are dissolved. This base fluid can be mineral oil with or without de-aromatized white spirit, ester/vegetable oil, or water in the case of emulsions. Fatty acids and/or esters are typically used as separating substances. The fatty acids chemically react with the cations in the “concrete water” to form metal soaps, which create the “predetermined breaking point” between the concrete and formwork after the concrete hardens. Esters, commonly used, are saponified by the highly alkaline concrete (pH value 12.9) into fatty acids and alcohol. The fatty acids then react with the cations in the “concrete water,” while the alcohol becomes part of the cement matrix. Additionally, concrete release agents contain additives to reduce pores and shrink holes, as well as provide temporary corrosion protection for steel formwork.
