Environmental Concerns… Going Green
Your Plant Environment
Of paramount importance to any plant using corrosive chemicals is the safe handling and containment of these dangerous substances.
We help you manage the liabilities associated with process liquors and protect our environment:
- Secondary Containment Liners for all operations areas
- Day Tanks, Piping Troughs and Dosing Tanks
- Fume Abatement and Treatment Systems that include:
- Collection Hoods and Covers
- Plenums and Ductwork
- Blowers and Fans
- Scrubbers and Exhaust Stacks
Our Greener Process and Product
The resins used to make our extruded Polypropylene construction materials are by-products of crude oil refining. Our technologies provide an effective use for these resins, substances that were previously discarded.
Consider these important facts about our materials and plant facilities:
- Other than electricity, extruding our sheet material consumes few other resources
- Polypropylene is resistant to a wide variety of acids, alkalis and solvent solutions, making it an excellent choice for chemical service applications
- Having an extremely low absorption rate, disposal of our materials after their useful service life has little environmental impact
- Polypropylene meets FDA requirements for food contact
- Polypropylene has excellent thermal qualities, so energy loss outside the working envelope is minimal
- Fabricating with Polypropylene sheet generates no offensive or dangerous exhaust gases
- Our efficient Plant Heating system recycles the hot-air from our tools and equipment, resulting in a 90% reduction in heating energy consumption
