Success Stories

Ecolab wanted to increase efficiencies and accuracy by moving away from mixing batches of a product manually. With the fully automated Powell Blending System, Ecolab customized different solutions with the push of a button to mix batches containing multiple, diverse ingredients. They continuously expanded their business over the years being a global leader within the industry, by adding more Powell equipment along the way.

Inconsistent quality and operator errors were two issues Splash Products Inc. once faced, manufacturing their windshield washer detergent in batch tanks. Powell customized a Blending System that automated their process to continuously blend ingredients as needed to make their product. They reduced labor costs, production time, and storage space all while improving the consistency, and quality of their product. Splash Products Inc. continues to choose Powell equipment to help meet their ever-growing needs.

A customer in Saudi Arabia had a dilemma on their hands. Their Powell System was inoperative with a damaged monitor. This could have caused a lack of production for an extended period. With the VPN installed in their equipment and Powell’s level of commitment to its clients, Powell remotely controlled the machine and supplied a new monitor, helping to minimize downtime.

ADM’s millers struggled with attaching the coupler to the valve stem. ADM Milling acquired a Powell Valve Closure System for handling chemicals used in their milling process. This system was not only more cost effective, but superior in quality. Powell also designed a new state-of-the-art viewpoint bracket assembly to solve the attaching issue. This bracket assembly allowed for visual confirmation of the connection between the actuator coupler and the valve stem. Since the initial investment of the Powell Valve Closure System, ADM Milling continuously chooses Powell for their solutions.

In 2008, Green Cross Inc. purchased their sodium hypochlorite and were not satisfied with the quality. Wanting to produce a superior-quality product, Green Cross decided they could exceed this by bringing sodium hypochlorite manufacturing in-house. Starting from scratch, Powell designed a customized Sodium Hypochlorite System that could produce the level of quality desired while meeting manufacturing requirements. Over the years Green Cross Inc. worked with Powell adding more equipment as they expanded their capacity and output.

While Protea Chemicals expanded their market into South Africa, they needed a system to safely repackage chlorine. Based on our expertise within the industry and the ability to customize a solution, Protea Chemicals chose Powell. We provided Protea with an Equipment Scrubber, Emergency Scrubber, Sodium Hypochlorite System, and Filter System to produce some of the best sodium hypochlorite on the market.

Laser Products produces a superior-quality product, which has allowed them to convert many municipal water treatment facilities from chlorine gas to bleach. A top benefit for municipalities is that bleach is a simple to use, reliable, and relatively safe water disinfectant. To their communities, bleach eliminates the need to locally store hazardous chlorine gas with its potential of dangerous leaks. Powell helped Laser Products improve their process and insights on how to grow by giving unparalleled support.
