Slurry advantages

Slurry consists in a suspension of chemical products or insoluble minerals mixed with water to create a stable, fluid and easy-to-handle result not requiring any stirring.

By using slurry you will get a more accurate dosage, improving the safety for your employees as well as the cleanliness in your factories. Health and safety problems linked to the use of dangerous powders are eliminated.

  • No contaminated waste which would otherwise have to be reprocessed (bags, etc…).
  • The dosage is much more accurate with a pump, thus reducing overdoses and wastage.
  • It is easier to measure a liquid than a powder, and this can reduce significantly the amount required.
  • A fully automated storage and distribution facility can be installed on the customer's factory. This facility almost requires no manpower.
