Article Type: Environment and safety From: Pigment & Resin Technology, Volume 40, Issue 1
Control™ Soy mastic remover from Grayling is a new environmentally safe and responsible solvent formulation designed for mastic removal on asbestos abatement projects.
Alpharetta, GA (PRWEB) – Grayling Industries, a leading manufacturer of environmental safety products, announced today the successful development of Control™ Soy mastic remover, a new, safe, biodegradable and low odor solvent blend designed to liquefy floor adhesives on asbestos abatement projects, while insuring workers and building occupants are safe and comfortable.
David Larsen, who led the development of Control™ Soy, says, “Although the formulation is not for every asbestos removal job, Control™ Soy is ideally suited for abatement projects where odors could be an issue or where the environmental impact of the solvents used is important.”
Control™ Soy is a natural, soybean-based product designed for the safe and environmentally responsible removal of all types of floor adhesives. The product is biodegradable, has a flash point of over 200°F, emits no VOCs and has essentially no odor. The Control™ Soy formulation complies with the requirements of the; California Air Resources Board, Ozone Transportation Commission and the Lake Michigan Air Director’s Consortium.
This type of mastic remover product has been proven in the asbestos abatement industry as a viable alternative to hydrocarbon-based solvents and is a welcome addition to the extensive Control™ product line of mastic removers.
Control™ Soy and all other Control™ mastic remover products are available world wide through authorized Grayling distributors.
