Alpha CALCIT Füllstoff GmbH & Co. KG, headquartered in Cologne, is part of the owner-managed ALPHA CALCIT Group. Hermann Münchow founded the company in 1919 under the name “Teutonia” and initially ground natural Jurassic limestone for window putty. Today, we offer natural calcium carbonate, the flame retardants aluminum hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide, titanium dioxide as a white pigment in powder form and as a slurry, as well as pigment/filler blends. For calcium carbonate, we manage the entire process in-house, from quarrying the rock to the finished industrial mineral.
