From January 1, 2023, environmental labelling will be mandatory on packaging. Packaging and wrapping are also important in our production and distribution chain: vertical agitators and powder dispensers must also be transported safely and reliably.
The obligation applies to all packaging – primary, secondary and tertiary – from packages to pallets, which – as far as the B2B sector is concerned, i.e. when the packaging does not reach the private individual – must be marked with an alphanumeric code indicating the type of materials used, in accordance with Decision 129/97/ EC.
At PRO-DO-MIX® we have welcomed the new packaging disciplines: the adaptation effort required to implement the regulations is nothing compared to the potential benefits for the environment and clarity. But as is often the case, we have not only complied with the regulations, but have gone further and have also provided voluntary information.
All our packages are marked with the code QR: Framing it will take you to a special page on our website where, in addition to the alphanumeric code, you can see the voluntary information about the type of packaging and its proper disposal in separate collection.
When we were confronted with this possibility, we had no doubts. Making the label even clearer and quicker to consult and fill in has a double advantage: on the one hand, it is an ethical choice for the environmental benefits already mentioned and, on the other, it is a gesture that makes life easier for our customers, as they have all the information they need to collect, dispose of or recycle their packaging just a smartphone away and at their fingertips.
Thanks to this solution, we have achieved the highest rating for environmental communication effectiveness (3 stars) according to the “Vademecum for the use of digital channels for environmental packaging labelling”.
In fact, sustainability at PRO-DO-MIX® is not a legal duty, but primarily an ethical one. We have set up and optimized the various company activities precisely to reduce environmental impact, in particular by monitoring and moderating energy consumption and by carefully managing waste and recycling within the company.
The same principle applies to our products, which are designed to provide the best hydraulic performance with minimum energy consumption: so our customers save money and the planet gains health.
Flocculant mixing system with two-blade impeller. Thanks to its high hydrodynamic profile with wide blade surface, has the highest flow rate at the lowest peripheral speed. This design is aimed to prevent the fluid coming out from one blade to immediately meet the second blade.
Therefore, it is perfect when managing very delicate applications, where the fluid needs to be handled very gently and carefully. That is why Premium is specific for flocculation.
It can be manufactured with different diameters, 800 to 3000 mm.
A completely disassemblable option is available as well, to ease the entering through the tank manhole.
Three-blade impeller with high hydrodynamic profile. Within our industrial impeller models, it has the lowest torque for the same flow rate. Moreover, it can create the highest flow rate with the lowest peripheral speed.
It is perfect as flow-maker, for high head values in recirculation.
It can be manufactured with different diameters, 200 to 3500 mm.
A completely disassemblable option is available as well, to ease the entering through the tank manhole.
High-efficiency three-blade impeller with high hydrodynamic profile. Thanks to its high flow rate, it is particularly suitable for flash mixing, sludge and solid suspension, equalization, etc.
It can be manufactured with different diameters, 900 to 1500 mm.
A completely disassemblable option is available as well, to ease the entering through the tank manhole.
Three-blade impeller with high hydrodynamic profile. It is the “evolution” of Hurricane. Its internal velocity gradient, constant from the centre to the edge of the blade, allows the positioning of an impeller with large diameter very close to the bottom of the tank. That makes Evolution perfect for applications that require the mixer’s continuous operation during the total draw-off of the tank.
It can be manufactured with different diameters, 1650 to 3500 mm.
A completely disassemblable option is available as well, to ease the entering through the tank manhole.
Three-blade impeller with high hydrodynamic profile. Due to its special design, it can produce a centrifugal effect for which the impeller can be defined self-cleaning, thanks to this anti-clogging effect.
It is specific for nitrification/denitrification, anaerobic digestion, mixing in anoxic systems and other applications with presence of fibres.
It can be manufactured with different diameters, 1600 to 3500 mm.
A completely disassemblable option is available as well, to ease the entering through the tank manhole.
It is widely used in a broad range of applications due to its efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Within Water Treatment, pitched blade impellers are perfect for polyelectrolyte preparation and maturation, primary neutralization and pH adjustment.
It can be manufactured with different diameters, 200 to 2000 mm.
A completely disassemblable option is available as well, to ease the entering through the tank manhole.
This helical type impeller is very versatile, generally installed in fast direct mixers. Very common in small preparations of chemicals.
It is manufactured from casting in proprietary moulds.
It can be manufactured with different diameters, 90 to 160 mm diameter.
Available in 2 material options, polypropylene (PP) and stainless steel (SS 316L).
Perfect when dealing with high viscosities, cowles agitators are typically used in paints or detergents industry. Their design, combined with the high shear, allow the product dispersion and foster a quick dissolution.
They can be manufactured with different diameters, 75 to 750 mm.
Different joint options are available.
Generally used within food & beverage and cosmetics industry to manage high viscosity products or to foster heat exchange.
It is common within the pharmaceutical industry as well, in processes such as crystallization.
Moreover, it is often used as universal rotor in small tanks for multi-stage applications.
The engineering and the manufacturing of this anchor type impeller are directly related to the tank features.
Plastic mixing impeller generally used within food farming industry, for fertilization and irrigation.
It is only available 130 mm diameter.
Manufactured with white polyethylene (PE).
