Renowned for its commitment to quality, the company stands as a trusted industry leader in providing sustainable and effective solutions for both wood protection and fire prevention. I am excited to work with such a dedicated team.”

Under his guidance, Wolman will continue to lead the way in wood and fire protection and support our customers as a partner with expertise and know-how.”
Ralf Schulz started as Managing Director of Dr. Wolman GmbH in 2010, which he successfully integrated into the BASF group in 2014. The resulting BASF Wolman GmbH formed the modern basis of today’s company. The transition of the BASF Construction Chemicals Business to MBCC in 2020 as well as the launch of the Fire Protectors division in 2021 followed. Since May 2023, Wolman Wood and Fire Protection GmbH has been part of Sika.
