ImproChem manufactures the DusTreat product range at their facilities in Umbogintwini, South Africa. ImproChem sales technologists are specially trained to identify and qualify the best solution around customer needs in dust mitigation. Coupled with seamless backup from GE, experienced local personnel and many Case Histories. Above and below ground level Improchem has been providing excellent dust mitigation solutions to mainly the mining industry, although processing and industrial plants also benefit from their offering.
Improchem has attended to sensitive materials handling applications where additions of moisture should be minimised – they are uniquely successful at foam applications.
The ImproChem materials handling products have been tested for impact on finished product quality and passed due to lower dose and water application rates compared to others. Other unique aspects such as spontaneous combustion, high temperature sinters and ores are also able to be addressed with specialist technology. Stockpile stabilisation and reduction of product /ore losses are another aspect often not attended to, as it is not known that there are solutions for this.
On roads, ramps and footwalls ImproChem is able to excel through using environmentally friendly technology. Greatly reducing impact on ground/process water and run-off into rivers and dams. The DusTreat™ products are non-slip, non-corrosive and easily removed from machinery in cleaning bays, unlike many products that can encrust and corrode. From palliative spraying to stabilised road applications the products are chosen after proper aggregate testing is done. This testing also provides their customers with confidence in what they will be able to attain with the Improchem treatment. ImproChem continue to focus on innovation and improvement and launched powder based product application to reduce the impact of transport aspects into difficult to reach areas.
Beyond complexity to customized solutions through collaboration and care -by listening to their customer needs ImproChem provide solutions tailored to a site and develop the value savings that exceed cost of application with ease. In cases where there are unique installation requirements they have a qualified engineered solutions team that can design, build and commission customer specific dust applications.
ImproChem is operational in 29 countries across Africa and the Indian Ocean Islands, providing on-site service to a large number of customers. They have formal distribution agreements with a number of companies in sub-Saharan Africa to support the in-country expansion of their local capabilities.
