Client and Facility Overview
As a long-time partner to the food industry, this food additive manufacturer is located in the suburbs of Chicago. The facility specializes in the production of food additives and operates multiple areas for storage, processing and packaging.
Requested Maintenance
The client's request was for a redesign of the structural steel that supports their critical food additive tanks. The existing dark blue color needed to be changed to a more visible safety orange to improve workplace safety and comply with industry standards. Due to the critical role of these supports in the production environment, it was imperative that the conversion did not disrupt operations.
