S24: The metal shed that was built over the repackaging area to minimize heat exposure and provide lower temperatures in the summer was extended to cover almost 50% of the industrial area. Now, the extended roof keeps the repackaging and automated filling machine area at a cooler temperature and well under the compound flashpoint of 68 - 70 degrees Celcius. Exposure to less heat reduces the evaporation rate of the compound during repackaging operations. Also, a new automated filling machine was installed last year to fill/refill the containers in an automated, fast, and efficient way. There is an operator monitoring the machine all the time. |

S24: A shed with metal beams and a hard roof was built over the repackaging area to minimize heat exposure andtemperature. This roof keeps the repackaging area at a cooler temperature and well under the compound flashpoint of 68 - 70 degrees Celcius. The exposure to less heat reduces the evaporation rate of the compound during repackaging operations.Also, a new automated filling machine was installed last year to fill/refill the containers in an automated, fast, and more efficient way. There is an operator monitoring the machine all the time. |
