Project: VSF . saponification plant
Sector: Industry
Location: Veenendaal
Client: Dishman Netherlands BV
Installer: TechTron Projecttechniek BV
For the saponification factory VSF Veenendaal of Dishman Netherlands BV, the old factory was demolished in one year and a new one built at the same location. This was done with the help of their own staff, so that they did not have to lose their jobs during the production stop. Thanks to MCT Brattberg, the cables are safe, watertight, fire-retardant and gas-tight.
In September 2012, the old VSF factory was definitively declared unsafe. Dishman Netherlands BV was given the task of renovating the entire factory, whereby production had to be stopped. In order not to lose jobs and to keep the employees involved, the company’s own staff helped with the new building. The fact that the new factory was opened a year later shows that this project is a great example of teamwork!
Ton Valkenburg, maintenance specialist at Dishman, indicated early in the construction process that installer TechTron Projecttechniek BV had to work with the safe transit products from MCT Brattberg. He wanted to be able to guarantee the safety of the factory in this ATEX environment. Theunissen Technical Trading BV in Malden supplied the RGB frames and the filler blocks. Dishman Netherlands BV is once again fully confident that the company will have watertight, fire-retardant and gas-tight penetrations in the coming decades. MCT Brattberg gives a 25-year warranty on the products.
