EMBA Machinery AB
Since 1954, EMBA Machinery AB has manufactured conversion machines, spare parts and upgrade kits for the global corrugated board industry. The company is today owned by the family company Berg Industries, which develops and manufactures machines and equipment for the corrugated board industry, steel wire products for the pulp industry as well as further processing and leasing of industrial and office properties. The customers are all over the world, from global groups with a large number of factories and machines down to smaller family businesses with one or a couple of machines from EMBA's range.
Time-saving with traditional rust protection
With shipments all over the world, good rust protection is essential to ensure deliveries. EMBA previously used traditional methods. All units and parts had to be lubricated with "batter and glue" before shipping by container or shipping by truck. Once there, everything has to be washed off again, a time-consuming task with unhealthy solvents. Only then could assembly and installation begin.
Tribotec's rust protection solution saved a lot of time
Today, EMBA has worked with environmentally adapted vci rust protection from Tribotec for 12 years. Unlike before, each delivery now only takes 1/3 of the time to assemble and start up.
"Cortec's rust protection is very easy to handle and guarantees that the products reach our customers in the best condition"
- Jan Andréasson,
Production Engineer, EMBA
- Tribotec has rust-protected our machine units and spare parts during transport, both on truck trailers during transport in Europe and in containers during sea freight worldwide. All with very good results, says Jan Andréasson, production engineer, at EMBA.
Other solutions against rust have been cumbersome, expensive and less good for the environment. Tribotec offers a complete rust protection program based on the so-called VpCI technology. An environmentally friendly packaging method where the contents are secured by an active, invisible rust protection. The protected parts are ready to use immediately, which saves time and provides a better working environment.
- We think that Cortec's liquid rust protection from Tribotec is easy to apply, and that the VpCI plastic is very easy to handle. Together, they provide adequate protection and guarantee that the products reach our customers in the best condition, concludes Jan.
