The AlumiPlate aluminum plating process uses patented, proprietary chemicals with toluene as the base solvent. The coating process occurs in a fully closed system. Air pollution emissions are low, both in total and relative to the number of pieces processed. AlumiPlate has a "Type D Registration Permit" from the Minnesota PCA, currently operates far below its permitted levels, and can safely expand production. Chemical consumption is low and disposal of depleted chemicals is safe and efficient. AlumiPlate is committed to continuous process improvement. We have demonstrated significant progress since our founding and have clearly defined goals for the future. We are confident the process can be performed with near zero emissions and we are working diligently to achieve this. The prime benefit of the aluminum coating from AlumiPlate is corrosion resistance. Preventing rust makes parts last longer. Parts that last longer do not need replacement as often, reducing the environmental impact over and over again. Cleaning and other maintenance procedures performed on pieces coated with aluminum do not generate the toxic waste streams that heavy metal coatings do. Aluminum (and the underlying nickel strike layer used on some pieces) are much less of a risk to the environment than cadmium and chromium. Disposal of used parts is easier, less expensive, and better for the environment. AlumiPlate, Incorporated: Making the world better with aluminum coatings. |
