We know that you are aware of the inherent risks in your industry and maintain appropriate prevention and hygiene measures. However, due to the idiosyncrasies of your industry, employees are exposed to the risk of inhalation of multiple toxic volatile compounds during the manufacturing processes.
The potentially toxic compounds involved in each of your processes, as well as the most important diseases related to the printing industry include:
- Skin disorders: Contact dermatitis due to organic solvents, acrylic resins, gum arabic, acrylamide, 3-mercaptopropionate, dyes (chromium, cobalt, nickel salts, azo derivatives), aldehydes, phenols, anthraquinones, caustics (caustic soda, ammonia, chromic acid, hydrochloric acid, phosphoric acid).
- Neurological disorders: lead and organic solvents.
- Hepatic disorders: toluene and chlorinated solvents.
- Hematological disorders: benzene and glycol ethers.
- Respiratory disorders: some organic solvents can cause chemical pneumonia and gum arabic is a respiratory sensitizer.
- Renal disorders: organic solvents.
- Cardiovascular disorders: chlorinated solvents (cardiac arrhythmias).
- Reproductive effects: lead and various organic solvents.
- Carcinogenic action: benzene, chromium salts, amine derivatives (benzidine and others), and polycyclic hydrocarbons.
Legislation for occupational risk prevention is extensive and proposes good practice manuals and procedures to reduce these toxicological risks among employees. But as you know, zero risk does not exist and any new option that appears is useful in contributing to reducing potential health problems and discomfort in the workplace.
PUROH has developed an innovative decontamination method that will reduce all these problems comfortably, economically, and naturally. PUROH will help you in the management and productivity of your industry. The contaminants specific to your sector and the problems derived from the use of potentially harmful substances are eliminated by this innovation.
PUROH is a disruptive technology in the elimination of volatile organic compounds. After extensive research, PUROH found the solution to these problems in nature. PUROH works by converting all these volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into harmless substances through a chain reaction called the Free Air Factor, which is based on the generation of neutral radicals that mineralize these harmful substances. This natural reaction has long been known to occur regularly in the upper layers of the atmosphere in the process called Advanced Oxidation. PUROH has succeeded in generating it effectively and harmlessly. Multiple scientific studies have been conducted, which can be found at this link, as well as a more detailed description of the products.
As an additional benefit of this reaction, the elimination of odors and pathogens is also achieved. PUROH is harmless to humans but lethal to viruses, bacteria, and fungi. It is an additional infection control tool of interest to many types of industries. These devices have low consumption and cover very large spaces. If interested, we would be happy to provide a visit to take measurements and make a proposal to improve them.
