Safe Touch – Worker Safety

Safe Touch Solutions Improve Worker Safety

The new OSHA penalties now in effect represent an increase of 78.2% in maximum fines. Avoid costly fines related to employee burn injuries by reducing surface temperatures easily to a safe-to-touch level with Syneffex™ Coating Solutions.

Lower Temperatures Fast for Safety!

Do you have hot equipment that is causing employee burn risk? Have you tried wrap style insulations that degrade quickly, putting you back to square one? Our Heat Shield™ EPX-H2O thermal insulation coating is a powerful solution that can lower a surface temperature 100 or 200 degrees Fahrenheit in just 24-48 hours or less.

Customers remark how amazing it is to be able to touch a boiler or steam pipe as soon as the coating is dry. This insulating coating also comes with a 10-year warranty. It won’t degrade or lose effectiveness for 10 years or more.

Here’s what customers have experienced:

  • Boiler: Surface reduced from 148.2C (298.8F) to 59.5C (139.1F) with 6 coats EPX-H2O (1.5mm)
  • Steam Pipe: Surface reduced from 138C (280.4F) to 50C (122F) with 6 coats EPX-H2O (1.5mm)
  • Metal Wall: Surface reduced from 39.9C (103.8F) to 24.8C (76.6) with 3 coats PT (0.15mm)

Field Demonstration for Burn Protection

Extraordinary Protection Brilliant!

Lasting Protection with a 10 Year Warranty
Syneffex™ safe touch solutions technology is the top choice for multiple insulation projects around the world that need to reduce surface temperature to OSHA safe touch (typically 140F/60C) and to reduce burn injury risk.

These award-winning coatings can tackle a number of heat related workplace hazards:

  • Reduce hot equipment to an employee safe touch temperature
  • Reduce recordable injury rates from burns
  • Keep heat inside the equipment, reducing worker heat stress in hot areas
  • Keep handrails and benches from heating up in the sun
  • Cool metal buildings and warehouses

Our Coatings Are Non-Toxic, Non-Flammable, and Low VOC

Patented Heat Shield™ coating technology insulates to save energy and also provides several safe touch solutions for employee safety. Our coatings also provide resistance to mold and mildew growth in ductwork and for other building surfaces to combat sick building syndrome (SBS) by keeping surfaces free of allergens.

For OSHA safety regulations and safe touch solutions, we’ve got you covered!
