Spare parts for refinery and chemical plant around Cologne
When one part of a works stops processing crude and is converted to base oils, you do not get a second plant but a second materials list — and twice the selection decisions. On shukchok material, design and price sit at the same position, before you write an enquiry.
Your rhythm on site
A conversion does not create quiet. It creates a second materials list.
The largest refinery site in Germany sits in two parts: in one, crude processing continues; the other is crude-free and being converted to base oils, with a 10 MW electrolyser on the grounds.
And then the friction you know: writing to five suppliers, waiting for queries about material and nominal size, comparing three quotations that mean different things. With an elastomer compound facing the wrong medium, nobody notices at the order, only at the shutdown.
Cologne sits in the domestic zone — EUR 9.49 for a parcel up to two kilograms, no customs border, no export declaration.

For suppliers
Your customers are here — and the shelf space costs nothing
Anyone in the Rhineland who manufactures or trades in valves, seals, bellows, filters or sample gas equipment can read the first half of this page as a market description: a refinery running in two states, a chemical cluster with just under 12 billion euros of turnover and a waste plant under continuous measurement. Those are your customers, and they already order here.
A shop of your own would have to earn its keep beside this cluster; the shelf here charges you no fee, because our share arises on a position that sells. You set your own prices and the range stays yours — the shop, the checkout, the invoicing and the customer contact run through us.
For you as a buyer that makes shukchok an open marketplace for industrial goods which changes the order things happen in: the cooler from the sample gas line, the gasket set for the column and the shut-off valve for the steam main come from different manufacturers — and still go into one basket and one ordering process, with your purchase order number and cost centre on the invoice.
- No listing fee, no monthly fee, no manual product approval
- Manufacturer and supplier are named visibly at every position
- One ordering process, one contracting party: contract and payment sit with us

Two ways in
Search the material, not the product name — and put the part beside it
Full-text search reads the specification table and therefore also reaches the part number from your bill of materials. If you manufacture or trade in the Rhineland, hang your range beside it without a listing fee.
