The chemical industry produces a large number of finishing chemicals, paints and finishing polymers. Examples of this include raw materials supplied to manufacturers of automobiles, oil, paper, packaging, textiles, hygiene articles, washing agents, building materials, paints and the printing and leather industries. Samples of chemical raw materials must be transported for analysis from the factory to the laboratory for processing. The well-established pneumatic tube system from pfaff aqs is used here, as are mills and presses. Our aim is to widen the use and application of pfaff equipment, and to open up new fields of application in this sector of industry.
