Based-water paint​: less pollution, better environment

ENVIRONMENTAL case

SOLUTION
Since 2007, our gear reducers have been painted with a water-based paint, resulting in a drastic reduction in atmospheric emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) compared to solvent-based paint.

The solvent content in a typical solvent-based paint is around 43%, whereas in the water-based paint we use, it is only 6%.

BENEFIT Green leaf

  • Improvement of air emissions: for every kilogram of water-based paint used, we save 370gr of solvent.
  • Improvement of work environment.
