Clean surface treatment in the food industry - a first for pinovo!

Clean Blasting is now being used for surface maintenance in the Food Industry! A first for Pinovo and for Toro, and confirmation of the switch to clean methods of paint and corrosion removal!

Toro has, since 1946, made its way into every Norwegian home as a manufacturer of soups, sauces and similar products. It is a subsidiary of Orkla Foods Norge AS and one of their biggest brands. As you can imagine, for Toro, hygiene is mission critical in all aspects of production and maintenance, for food safety reasons. So, a clean dustless solution like Pinovo’s fits the bill!

Glad to say that the clean spot blasting undertaken with Pinovo’s technology, on the painted steel beams, floors and tanks in Toro's production facilities in Arne, near Bergen, was successfully completed, and will be continued in their ongoing maintenance programme. Hats off to Toro for leading the way in the food industry, and for choosing the sustainable surface maintenance solution!

We would like to thank Toro/Orkla Foods Norge AS, and KTV Group AS for their confidence in our clean blasting technology. ​

other innovators also tackling paint microplastic pollution

Delighted 😁 to see other Innovators are also highlighting both the risks of Paint Microplastic Pollution, and developing solutions! Why not watch the video👇 to see how?

Washbox Global, led by fellow UpLink - World Economic Forum Top Innovator, Andrew Crimston, has come up with a solution to the paint and plaster that are lost into the environment on building sites. They have developed a self contained unit that captures, filters, and recycles waste water during tool washing in building construction - most importantly, at source. This enables them to then safely dispose of the paint, biocides and toxins.

We at Pinovo are tackling the same issue - "Mismanaged Paint"! Paint does a great job protecting and decorating objects. However, when (not if!) that Paint is lost into the environment during surface maintenance, it becomes an important environmental problem, because #PaintIsPlastic!

Pinovo's technology also stops the Paint Microplastic Emissions at source, enabling our customers to collect and safely dispose of them.

The good news is that our customers are now aware of the risk of Paint Microplastic Pollution, and are using clean solutions to prevent it.

Many thanks 🙏 to the great team at UpLink - World Economic Forum for helping both Pinovo and Washbox Global shine a light on the important problem of Paint Microplastic Pollution, and also our proven solutions.
