Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Remanufacture

Northern Technologies International Corporation is actively adding new material technologies to our portfolio. Our currently commercially available environmentally beneficial technology platforms are:

Global Corrosion Solutions

Using Zerust^® Corrosion Inhibiting VCI bags and VCI oils to protect metals and rust removers to restore parts saves 85-95 percent of the energy that is required to produce new parts. Preventing rust also reduces CO₂ emissions associated with reprocessing scrap into new parts and the environment waste stream from failed parts.

In addition to preventing waste in manufacturing environments, Zerust works in remanufacturing operations. Industrial remanufacturing refurbishes items such as engines, transmissions and other valuable assemblies into like-new condition. This prevents large amounts of waste from going to a landfill by rebuilding and making it usable again. Often the rebuilt part has the same expected life as the original new part. The energy saved by recycling one pound of steel can run a 60-watt light bulb for over a day.

Not only do Zerust products prevent waste, they are also environmentally responsible. Zerust VCI poly bags and films, and kraft paper products are recyclable. Zerust products are approved by many commercial companies, various military organizations, International Health Institutes and the EU's chemical organization to be non-toxic, and environmentally benign.

Our management systems is certified to the ISO 9001:Quality Management Standard.

Zerust^® Oil and Gas products reduce the environmental impact of the oil and gas industry by reducing waste, preventing spillage and leaks and extending the service-life of metal assets.

Flange Savers™ reduce the need for blast cleaning and/or chemical surface preparation of flanges thereby reducing use of potential pollutants. A protected flange minimizes the possibility of oil leaking into the environment. Both of these benefits are especially important in the context of the sensitive marine environment of offshore oil platforms, coastal refineries and terminals.

The ReCAST-R system reduces the leakage of hazardous vapors into the atmosphere by preventing roof leaks. The ReCAST-SSB system minimizes the possibility of oil leaking into the soil by preventing tank bottom plate corrosion.

Zerust solutions are also environmentally friendly in that solutions are specifically designed to meet stringent 3rd party evaluations of EPA regulations.

In addition, using Zerust Corrosion Inhibiting VCI bags and VCI oils to protect metals and rust removers to restore corroded parts saves 85-95 percent of the energy that is required to produce new parts. Preventing rust also reduces CO₂ emissions associated with reprocessing scrap into new parts and the environmental waste stream from failed parts.

Furthermore, to prevent waste in manufacturing environments, Zerust works in remanufacturing operations. Industrial remanufacturing refurbishes items such as engines, transmissions and other valuable assemblies into like-new condition. This prevents large amounts of waste from going to a landfill by rebuilding and making it usable again. Often the rebuilt part has the same expected life as the original new part.

High-Tech Bio-Plastics for a Sustainable World

Natur-Tec^® biobased resins meet the US standard for biobased plastics ASTM 6866. Finished products made from these resins enable users to reduce their carbon footprint by 80% when compared to traditional plastics.

Natur-Tec compostable resins meet the US standard for compostable plastics ASTM D6400. Natur-Tec compostable resins are used to make products that support a sustainable lifestyle such as compostable bags and bin liners for use in homes and businesses. Diverting organic waste can reduce 25 to 50% of waste going to a landfill.

Proprietary bio-based and biodegradable plastics and products tailored for single-use disposable consumer and industrial packaging, and durable industrial engineering plastics applications.www.natur-tec.com
