UV Instant Cure Line Marking – AG Thames

Problem

Leading fresh fruit distribution company AG Thames needed to replace old safety
line markings whilst keeping their 24/7 chiller storage fully operational;

• High quality fresh fruit that could not be contaminated with solvents, dust or odours
• Cold Storage temperatures that could not be altered
• 24/7 operation
• Poor visual appearance and safety concerns with existing lines

Solution

By using RapidShield instant cure coatings the following solution was proposed:

• Instantly dry and workable areas, via walk behind UV light equipment – minimizing downtime
• Zero VOC’s, no solvents and low odor made it ideal for the food environment
• Food safe – eradicated contamination
• Chemical and Stain resistant lines enabled the new lines to be maintained and kept clean
• Can be applied in low temperatures
• Dust free industrial preparation

Outcome

• Lines were applied in normal working hours with no disruption to the operation
• Each area completed and handed over at the end of each shift
• Clean and clear walkways and fork lift access lines provided
• Fruit was left fresh & uncontaminated
