AquaDelta Environmental Benefits

FEATURES:

•

AquaDelta Additive

(ADA) is not a safety hazard for your

employees.

AquaDelta Additive

(ADA) has no strong
odor like IPA. You will eliminate the alcohol

smell in the press room and the potential safety hazard that comes with IPA.

AquaDelta Additive

(ADA) is entirely non hazardous. It contains
no primary or

secondary alcohols,

as do most alcohol substitutes.

AquaDelta Additive

(ADA) is non corrosive and completely safe
for all press surfaces, which means

decreased wear

and tear

Environmental Benefits

	Eliminate the Presence of VOCs VOCs are defined as any organic compound that reacts with nitrogen oxides (NOx) in the presence of sunlight to form ozone. Most VOCs stem from the printing process, specifically from the use of IPA for dampening systems and cleaning solvents. Eliminating sources of VOCs in dampening solutions can significantly reduce the amount of VOCs that are released into the ozone layer as a result of evaporation
	Eliminate Exposure to Harmful Fumes IPA is of particular interest by OSHA, insurance companies and risk management agencies because it evaporates inside your facility, exposing your employees to potentially health-damaging fumes each day. Protecting your workers from these harmful effects and reducing risk is a great benefit for your company.
	Reduce Disposal Fees The disposal of fountain solutions that contain IPA, occurs about every three weeks - and printers can spend thousands of dollars per year in disposal costs due to its hazardous composition. AquaDelta not only has fewer disposal restrictions, it also needs to be replaced less frequently.
	No Flashpoint Means No Risk for Fire Like water, AquaDelta fountain solution contains no VOC’s, has no flash point, is not inflammable, only corrosive within the limits tolerated by the press manufacturers, innocuous for the skin, and not contaminating (FOGRA certified).
	Use Less Energy Millions of dollars are spent by facilities every year on extensive refrigeration systems to cool IPA in an attempt to slow the evaporation process. Energy consumption and costs can be greatly reduced by utilizing AquaDelta which requires no refrigeration. (Source: Printing Industry Center at RIT)
