Intercept Technology Awards

Intercept is the only anti-corrosion Material to win an environmental Award from the German Government

The process of using Intercept for Export shipping is ISO Certified The only process with this certification

•Secretary of the Australian Defence Packaging Committee

As Intercept meets the requirements of the UK standard then they can supply to the ADF because EF(AUST)1000C Part 3 ABCA has listed that UK standard as equivalent.

Defence Standard

Highlights of changes to Lucent X Specification X21386, Issue 4, April,07● Requires the use of Static Intercept® as the primary packaging material to be used for all Alcatel-Lucent products. No other materials pass the current specification.●The use of non-compliant materials as the primary packaging material for Alcatel-Lucent products is expressly prohibited.

2000 CabsStewart & Stevenson (Armor Holdings) came up with the idea of lining a crate top and bottom with Intercept Technology material. The team made a presentation TACOM packaging, comparing the cost of the wooden container with Intercept Technology lining compared to a metal container. TACOM decided to go with the wood container with Intercept Technology lining.

After a full on-site review of the LASC reusable container design in Kuwait, representatives of the U.S. Army Material Command Logistics Support Activity, Packaging, Storage and Containerization Centre in Tobyhanna, Penn. made the following statement in their report:‘After a review of the process, it was determined that the repackaging process was perfect for the application. By originally designing the container to be reusable, the contractor was able to very easily ship the old cabs home at a minimum in labour and material cost. This is an outstanding example of reusable packaging at work.’

In the field example Air

The Defence Science & Technology Organisation (DSTO) and The Royal Australian Air Force with Canada are conducting follow-on fatigue testing of the F/A-18 A/B Hornet because the use of the aircraft in Australian and Canadian service is different from that in US Navy service for which it was designed and tested by McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing). Australia committed to testing the rear fuselage and tail assembly while Canada was to test the centre fuselage and wings.

Case studies demonstrating cost savings utilising Intercept

Technology™

Results: 60,000 parts packaged, zero field defects

Nichols Aircraft has packaged over 60,000 parts without a field defect due to corrosion in transit or in storage. In addition:

Exceeds OH&S requirements, safe from hazardous fumes, and more productive.

The Quality Control department is now able to inspect stored parts without tearing packages, then resealing.

The facilities department saved thousands of dollars by not having to equip the packaging department in their new plant with heat sealing equipment, ventilation ducts, filtering systems, and vacuums.

Nichols spent the savings on equipment that was more productive to their manufacturing operation.

Plus, of course, all this is possible while improving their packaging protection

Several Methods Exist to Reduce Condensation

(1) Bladder to reduce trapped air

(2) Desiccant – we recommend 16 units per cubic meter of free air space – if you have a 3ft x 3 ft x 3 ft container with 50% of the volume taken up with an engine block it would require 8 units of desiccant. We are not trying to maintain less than 37% RH as required for dry packaging, we are trying to avoid dew points.

(3) Intercept bag or wrap using a VCI emitter – Northrop uses a large Intercept bag coupled with VCI emitters to store and ship AWACS wings. This complies with the mil spec and provides for long term corrosion protection and the ability to store outdoors.

(4) Slight machine oil coating – Intercept has been proven by the Singapore military to be able to preserve grease and protective oils on wrapped vehicles and bridge segments for up to 2 years. By keeping the ozone, nitrous gases, sulfur and chlorine gases, as well as dust from the oils and greases they can be kept pristine, dramatically slowing down the oxidation and degradation of the oils.

The Two Best Methods Found for Controlling RH and Condensation

(1) Hang Desiccant – needs to be replaced whenever the enclosure is opened. Desiccant must be removed prior to operation (16 units / m3 of free air space).

(2) Use our unique method of Intercept pillows to reduce the trapped air inside large void areas. Condensation predominantly will occur inside the pillow. Proven on military vehicles stored for 6 months to 2 years in Singapore. The pillows allow for rapid removal, becoming operational quickly.
