High-performance solidification solutions for base chemicals
IPCO’s advanced solidification systems provide reliable, efficient, and low-maintenance solutions for processing of melts such as resins, waxes, oleochemicals, and more. Our Rotoform technology based on steel belt cooling ensures consistent product quality, high productivity and minimal environmental impact.
How IPCO tackles key challenges in base chemicals processing
Reliable solidification across all chemical types
Our steel belt cooling systems provide high-performance solidification for resins, waxes, oleochemicals and specialty chemicals. With zoned cooling capabilities, we ensure precise temperature control, even for difficult-to-process materials.
Flake production with single or double belt cooling systems
Our solutions incorporate purpose-designed feeding devices for different viscosities, single or double belt coolers, and breaker equipment to match product type, flake size and system capacity.
Streamlining production and handling
Our solutions eliminate the need for additional grinding or crushing, delivering free-flowing granules directly from the melt. This simplifies handling, reduces material loss, and ensures efficient storage and transportation.
Maximizing productivity and minimizing maintenance
With minimal maintenance requirements and high on-stream factors, our systems ensure continuous operation, helping you achieve maximum uptime and long-term cost savings.
