Waste / Material balance
- Improved Material Usage Variance (MUV), resulting in less off-spec products and improved product quality.
- Reduced waste and valuable pigment losses (>80%), using Deflector© technology.
- Improved material balance;
products(↑) vs. waste(↓). - Reduced collected waste transported out of the plant.
Example Flexible Compounding Plant: Losses through dust control were reduced by 85%. Average loss per line reduced from 2.67 kg/hr to 0.39 kg/hr.
