Balls that save you money !

Euro-Matic ’ s croffles solution could really help save a heap of cash in manufacturing processes that use heat and chemical tanks . It ’ s surprising how many people don ’ t know about them or what a simple , cost-effective solution they are for the manufacturing environment .
For any factories or production plants with chemical processes or heat or cooling tanks , there will inevitably be a number of knock-on effects , such as maintaining tank temperature , nasty smells and toxins , or even just the damage evaporation can do to the work place environment . But this longstanding , simple solution that has been developed by Euro-Matic solves these issues simply by pouring a blanket of balls onto any open process tanks and creating a flexible cover .
The first image shows the heat escaping as the balls are poured on you can clearly see the difference they make in th last image !
A blanket of Euro-Matic croffles reduces heating costs by up to 75 %, and evaporation by 90 % & they last for years . Euro-Matic balls come in a variety of plastics such as HDPE and most commonly PP dependent on the chemicals and in a variety of sizes from 6mm right up to 150mm . The cool thing is that the balls move around any parts in machinery and by sitting on the top of the liquid , there is completely no maintenance .
