Removing Chromium-6 safely and cleanly, without downtime?!

More great work by Perspect Industrial Products, our Benelux distributor!

What is Chromium-6 or Hexavalent chromium? It is the cancer-causing chemical that poisoned the community of Hinkley, Calif., made "famous" in the 2000 film “Erin Brockovich”!  It is commonly used for anti-corrosion metal coating, wood preservation and textile dyeing.

This is where operator health and safety concerns, and environmental protection meet! By using Pinovo's Clean Blasting technology, Wiebe Vermeer and Bart Steggink completed the surface treatment demonstration safely and efficiently, protecting both operators and the environment!

Well done Perspect Industrial Products b.v. ATEX-tools, led by Nico Verloop, spreading the word about Pinovo's Clean Blasting ATEX certified solution!

Last week, my colleague Bart Steggink and I had the privilege of conducting a unique demo in Eemshaven.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭'𝐬 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞: Remove chromium-6 coatings in an ATEX zone, without any downtime. Using the Pinovo blasting machine and tools from Allmet Safety Tools, we demonstrated how to work safely and efficiently, even in environments with chromium-6 and explosion risks.

𝐁𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐏𝐢𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐨:
- Closed blasting system: No hazardous particles released into the air.
- Simultaneous operations: Blast and coat directly, saving valuable time.
- Time savings = fewer opportunities for accidents and creating a safer working environment.

Curious to learn more about this demo? Interested in discovering what Pinovo and our ATEX tools can do for your project? Or would you like more information about our demos and training sessions? Send me a message, and let's schedule something!
