Exwold

An American multi-national company needed to improve the effectiveness of its supply chain for formulating a key Plant Growth Regulator (PGR) soluble granule.

In 2004, Exwold was approached by a large, privately owned American crop chemicals company following its purchase of an older "off-patent" herbicide from a multi-national company.

Whilst exhibiting at a European Trade Fair, we were approached by a multinational chemical company with an enquiry. The European client had a market requirement for a granular form of their powder product.

Exwold were approached by a major multi-national company that required a coarse powder version of an intermediate product normally sold as a molten liquid (~110^oC).

The first stage was to physically break down the material into a size that could easily be fed into a granulator

After carrying out a complete HAZOP (Hazards and Operability Study) involving the customer, Exwold installed an automatic safety quenching system

..with no change in product quality yet at reduced costs for our customer.
