AkzoNobel's On-Site Chlorine Solution

A radical rethink of the chlorine supply chain  - AkzoNobel has thought long and hard about how to secure the supply of chlorine to customers. Instead of high profile transports, we have focused on delivering chlorine at source where it is needed. Our future-proof, full service solution is Your Chlorine. These chlorine production units, located at our customers' manufacturing sites and remotely controlled by specialized AkzoNobel personnel, offer customers a sustainable chlorine supply. The concept offers the ideal solution for businesses which depend on a steady supply of chlorine in intermediate volumes, offering advantages enjoyed by large-scale chlorine consumers that are supplied via pipeline. So you can forget about the uncertainty of having to buy chlorine in the market. But that´s not all, Your Chlorine offers customers the possibility to replace existing smaller plants still using the outdated, environmentally disputable mercury electrolysis process. Our small-scale production units offer an economically viable way to convert aging facilities to state-of-the-art membrane technology.
