Managing Corrosion

Are there costs that you can cut from your operation with a more refined Corrosion Control Program (CCP)?

Consider this statement on corrosion from the Government Accountability Office in 2011:

“Corrosion destroys equipment, decreasing readiness and reliability while causing safety hazards and increasing maintenance and other ownership costs. The Department of Defense (DoD) estimates corrosion costs the department over $23 billion annually.”

And that is just the DoD. What about your company’s valuable assets?

A cylinder block manufacturer was able to increase pack density by 31% and eliminate oiling and degreasing AND saved 300% on their packaging cost per cylinder block.

• Minimizing number and volume of materials
• Materials disposal
• Reusable materials

• Materials safety for workers
• Eliminate oiling/degreasing stations/supplies/labor

• Reduced packaging time and space required
• More efficient bulk-packs with materials change

• Ease of inspection of stored items
• Reduced labor
• Reduced equipment requirements, including ventilation

Are your current corrosion control materials cost effective?

The right material chosen for your Corrosion Control Program allows for a streamlined process from parts to assembly. With an advanced or modern CCP your operation can yield larger production runs to gain greater efficiencies in manufacturing. These efficiencies can carry over to other departments including quality control and customer service.

An engine block manufacturer saved 1.8 million Euros yearly, reducing the cost of their engine block by 28%.

Lower your cost of goods. Increase your profits.
