Product Case History PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Nabisco's plant in Chicago, IL had a failing epoxy coating that was installed 5 to 8 years ago. The existing coating was worn to the substrate by the constant abrasion of grain cycling through the silos. The plant maintenance superintendent needed a coating that was FDA approved for direct food contact and provided impact protection against rocks and other debris that was causing damage to the previous lining and became a point of corrosion. COATING SELECTION EXPLANATION: Reactamine 760 HB was chosen to provide the maximum protection against wear and offer rapid return to service. The high build capability offers a 40% improvement on edge retention over the original Reactamine 760 which gives the owner a significant increase in service life. www.carboline.com January 2022 Mondelez/Kraft Rice Grain Silo Lining with Reactamine 760 HB LOCATION: Chicago, IL, United States DATE OF APPLICATION: August 2014 MARKET: Food & Beverage TYPE: Rehabilitation OWNER: Mondolez-Kraft PROJECT SIZE: 500 Gallons
