Environmentally Safe Industrial Surface Remover

As the world's leading brewer, AB InBev which includes Michelob, is meant to be enjoyed responsibly by those of legal drinking age.  They produce a product that brings people together, while at the same time conveying the message that good times must be balanced by great responsibility.

It's always good to see a company follow through with the commitment of being responsible, especially where the environment is in question.  With *48.3% Market Share in the United States, it takes hundreds of trucks in the distributors delivery fleet to distribute the cans and bottles across the United States.  This amount of driving can really put a tremendous amount of wear and tear on trucks. And being a the #1 beer provider in America, with several different products, trying to keep the brand graphics in premier condition can be a daunting task.

So how do you remove decals from ground transportation vehicles in a responsible way?  Plastic Media Blasting (PMB).  This form of plastic media stripping, similar to sand blasting without the damage that is normally a result of sand blasting.  PMB is the quickest, safest, surface remover, and it's reusable.  Tough to remove vinyl decals are stripped from the surfaces of aluminum, steel, fiberglass, magnesium, composites, plastic, and rubber with simplicity and economically.
I know what you are thinking; what about paint, and enamel?  Plastic Media Blasting is the surface removal solution for not just paint and enamel, but lacquer, polyurethane, powder coatings, and primers can also be safely removed without damage to the underlying surface.

These pictures show the AB InBev Michelob truck having its decal removed with plastic media. In just few hours the brand logo is removed from the aluminum truck without harming the surface.

The Land Transportation Refinishing Industry solution for protecting the environment is plastic media blasting and Envirosystems Group (ESG) the source with it's Stripmaster Blasting Equipment specifically designed to ensure accuracy, speed, and great responsibility.

The Importance of Dust Collection Systems

Dust collection Systems can become important parts of a company's environmental safety and industrial hygiene program.

One of the important factors companies should keep in mind is health risk.  Inhaling hazardous dust created through certain work environments can develop into respiratory illnesses.

Without an efficient dust collection system, much of the contaminated air can cause irritation to an uncovered skin surface. Providing a dust collection system fit for machinery as will keep the work environment air virtually dust free.

Unlike the typical office environment, the air inside a manufacturing facility may contain particulates, gases and vapors or a combination of these contaminants. As a result, the atmosphere can become hazardous and even lethal.

Recently, Envirosystems Group helped *Bombardier Aerospace –The world’s third largest civil aircraft manufacturer– Mexico with their industrial hygiene efforts by providing four custom production booths. Bombardier Aerospace Mexico, had a need for four separate finishing booths in order to provide positive air quality during the aircraft paint process.

The first was a Paint Booth, a Paint Prep Booth, a Dust Collection Booth for Trimming and Drilling of composite parts and structure, and the fourth booth was a Blast Booth.

Envirosystems Group listened to the customers requirements, designed the booths and equipment to handle those requirements, installed all booths and equipment, and trained the staff on all aspects of the booths.
