14/08/2020 – Two major operational units
Reorganisation at Dörken
Dörken has restructured itself. As of 1st of August 2020 there are two major operational units.
In the new logo the “D” is more highlighted, forming the most important visual element alongside the “Dörken” word mark. This element will not remain static. It changes according to company area and type of use. For example, as illustrated here, it can be filled with a dimpled sheet or with a paint bucket. Or with a person, when it relates to HR subjects. The “D” acts like a magnifying glass, enabling a glimpse inside the company. © Dörken

Therefore Dörken MKS-Systeme, CD-Color and Protec Systempasten are merging into one company under the name “Dörken Coatings GmbH & Co. KG”. The individual product brands from the paint, coating and paste areas remain preserved.
Dörken GmbH & Co. KG will continue to operate under this name. Its pitched roof and facade sheetings, foundation wall protection and drainage systems will however be distributed under the name “Dörken Membranes” in future.
The new “Dörken” umbrella brand therefore covers the entire corporate group. “We are all Dörken. With the new brand architecture, the uniform design and the strong joint claim ‘Discover Expertise’, we can now present this unity clearly and invitingly to the outside world,” says Dörken CEO Thorsten Koch. “That’s how what belongs together grows together.”
Consequently, the appearance is also being modernised. This is reflected in the corporate identity and in logo adaptations. A first impression of the new design is offered on the new home page of the company www.doerken.de, which went online at the beginning of August.
However, the invitation to discover is not limited to new websites, flyers or brochures. A further example is the newly-developed tiny house, which demonstrates the individual areas of competence and expertise in the field of physical membranes as well as chemical coating solutions and their interactions. “This also renders our ‘Dörken protects value’ claim truly visible and tangible for the first time,” says Thorsten Koch.
Dr. Martin Welp and Dr. Gerhard Reusmann, the managing directors of the new Dörken Coatings, are therefore looking forward to continuously improving the performance and service quality in the field of coatings as a strong team. “The new corporate law structure allows us to bundle our energy to help forming the future of our sector. It is now even easier for us to position our different areas of expertise on the market profitably and to provide these to our partners in the best possible form,” says Dr. Martin Welp. Ingo Quent, managing director of Dörken GmbH & Co. KG, also sees new potential for “Dörken Membranes”: “In the area of building envelopes we can expand our range enormously beyond our key business – protection against condensation or external influences. This comprehensive range will now be visible to everyone under the Dörken umbrella brand.”
