Are You Optimizing the Cleaning of Your Large Parts for Painting and Powder Coating?

<p>If you work with large parts, you already know that getting the proper surface preparation is one of the toughest—and most important—steps in your finishing process. Regardless of what you’re prepping, the quality of your coating starts with the quality of the surface preparation.</p>
<p>When cleaning isn’t consistent, problems show up: poor adhesion, poor corrosion performance, paint defects, or coatings that don’t last. And with large or complex parts, even small oversights can lead to big losses.</p>
<p>At Americo Chemical Products, we see this issue frequently, which is why we help large part finishing operations take control of their cleaning process without adding complexity or cost.</p>
<h2><b>Why Cleaning Large Parts is so Challenging</b></h2>
<p>Pressure spray wand cleaning offers advantages such as flexibility, lower upfront costs, and easy access to large or irregular parts. But it also introduces several variables that can be tough to manage on a production floor.</p>
<p>Part size, shape, and geometry all play a role. Tight weld seams and recessed surfaces trap oils and soils that a wand might miss. Operator distance, pressure angle, and spray duration can vary from one person to the next. Then there are the process factors: water quality, discharge requirements, and equipment maintenance. Over time, equipment performance can impact cleaning performance, even if the operator is doing everything right.</p>
<p>Those inconsistencies add up. When surfaces aren’t properly cleaned, that can lead to:</p>
<ul>
<li aria-level="1">Adhesion failures like peeling, poor corrosion performance, or paint defects</li>
<li aria-level="1">Extra labour and waste from stripping, recoating, or manual cleaning</li>
<li aria-level="1">Higher chemical and energy use from overcompensating with stronger solutions or higher heat</li>
</ul>
<p>In other words, every minute spent chasing cleaning issues cuts into efficiency, quality, and profit.</p>
<h2><b>How Americo Helps</b></h2>
<p>Our team understands the challenges that come with oversized parts, and we work directly with your operators to make sure your cleaning step is as consistent and cost-effective as possible.</p>
<p>Here’s how:</p>
<ul>
<li aria-level="1">Custom cleaning chemistry: We formulate and recommend cleaners as well as conversion coatings designed specifically for large parts and high soil loads. They cut through oil and contamination efficiently, without driving up chemical consumption.</li>
<li aria-level="1">Process development and optimization: We look at everything—part geometry, cleaning method, temperature control, water quality, discharge limits, spray wand equipment, and operator consistency—to design a spray wand process that fits your operation perfectly.</li>
<li aria-level="1">On-site support and operator training: Our team works directly with your staff to fine-tune procedures, provide hands-on guidance, and ensure every operator understands how to get the best results safely and consistently.</li>
<li aria-level="1">System reliability and cost control: Our programs optimize conversion coating performance, reduce rinse and wastewater issues, and cut unnecessary chemical and water use.</li>
</ul>
<p>The end goal is a cleaner, more consistent finish and a lower total cost per part.</p>


<p>If you’d like to schedule an operator training session or learn more about how it can benefit your facility, we’d be happy to help.</p>

Operator Training: A No-Cost Performance and Compliance Advantage

<p>Your process is only as strong as the people running it. Every day, your operators make dozens of decisions that affect quality, uptime, and compliance. When they’re confident and informed, things run right. When they’re not, small errors can turn into costly issues.</p>
<p>But even the best operators can only do so much without the right support. Over time, processes change, equipment gets updated, and knowledge can fade. Training helps close those gaps. It gives operators the “why” behind the “how,” turning routine tasks into informed decisions.</p>
<p>That’s why Americo Chemical Products invests in training as part of our customer partnerships. We believe your team should have all the tools they need to maintain steady production and operate efficiently. Our operator training program gives them that edge through practical knowledge they can use immediately.</p>
<h2><b>Why Training Matters</b></h2>
<p>In today’s production environments, the margin for error continues to shrink. Quality standards, environmental permits, and customer audits all depend on consistent operation, and that consistency starts with understanding.</p>
<p>When operators know not just how to do something, but why it matters, they make better decisions. They catch problems earlier, use chemicals more efficiently, and keep systems within spec.</p>
<p>Untrained or under-trained operators can unintentionally create big problems. Those mistakes lead to higher operating costs, wasted product, more downtime, and, in some cases, noncompliance.</p>
<p>Beyond the immediate costs, there’s the hidden risk of knowledge loss. When experienced operators leave and their know-how isn’t passed on, processes can drift, and performance becomes inconsistent from shift to shift. A structured training program protects that knowledge and keeps performance stable, even as teams change.</p>
<p>That’s why training is so valuable, and why Americo offers it free to our customers. It’s part of our commitment to partnership—helping you protect your investment, stay compliant, and maintain high performance without adding to your budget.</p>
<h2><b>How Americo’s Training Works</b></h2>
<p>Americo’s training combines two formats:</p>
<ul>
<li aria-level="1">Classroom-style learning: We start with short, focused sessions that explain the “why behind the how.” We cover process basics, chemistry fundamentals, and control principles in a way that makes sense to everyone, whether they are new operators or seasoned supervisors.</li>
<li aria-level="1">Hands-on training: Then we take it directly to your system and teach on your paint line, pretreatment process, or wastewater treatment system. Our team works closely with your staff, walking through real operating conditions, identifying trends, and troubleshooting in real-time.</li>
</ul>
<p>This mix of theory and real-world application makes the learning stick. It’s designed to build both confidence and consistency, so everyone on the floor knows what to look for and how to respond when conditions change. Every session focuses on your plant’s specific process, chemistry, and performance goals. Operators leave with skills they can use the same day.</p>
<p>Because the training is included at no charge, there’s no barrier to getting your team involved. The value is immediate:</p>
<ul>
<li aria-level="1">Less downtime and troubleshooting</li>
<li aria-level="1">Lower chemical use and waste</li>
<li aria-level="1">Fewer off-spec products or permit violations</li>
<li aria-level="1">Better teamwork and communication across departments</li>
</ul>
<p>And the impact lasts. When everyone understands the why behind their work, that shows up in smoother production and a stronger bottom line.</p>
<h2><b>Partnering for Performance</b></h2>
<p>At Americo, we see training as an investment in our customers’ success. It’s one more way we go beyond supplying products—by helping your team build the confidence, understanding, and skills to keep your systems running at their best.</p>


<p>Phosphorus may be one of the quietest threats to wastewater compliance, but it’s also one of the most controllable.</p>
<p>If phosphorus limits are putting your compliance and budget at risk, we can help you get back on track. Our proven treatment programs and on-site support make phosphorus control simpler, faster, and more predictable.</p>


Let’s Fix the Problem

Is Phosphorus Putting Your Wastewater Compliance at Risk?

<p>Across industries, plants are facing tighter discharge limits and growing pressure to reduce phosphorus in their wastewater. For many facilities, it’s now one of the biggest challenges in staying compliant.</p>
<p>Phosphorus is an essential element in cleaning, surface prep, and coating processes, but it becomes an environmental concern once it leaves the plant. It contributes to nutrient buildup in local waterways, which is why municipalities and regulators are tightening limits and increasing enforcement. Even plants that have strong wastewater programs in place are being asked to reach lower numbers, sometimes below 1mg/L or even below 0.1 mg/L in sensitive areas. With surcharge fees and increasing treatment costs, these changes are hitting facilities hard.</p>
<h2><b>Why Phosphorus Control is Getting Harder</b></h2>
<p>In most plants, phosphorus slips into the wastewater from a few common places. It’s often found in cleaning and degreasing products, surface preparation steps, and phosphating or coating lines. These products work well in production, but when they’re rinsed off, the leftover phosphorus washes down the drain. Over time, these small, steady sources add up and make compliance harder to maintain.</p>
<p>Phosphorus doesn’t break down on its own, and once it’s in your system, it lingers. Even small, high-strength rinse or cleaning streams can push an entire plant out of compliance.</p>
<p>Companies that send wastewater to a municipal treatment plant (POTW) aren’t exempt, as these plants are also under pressure. Many of them now pass the cost downstream through surcharge fees or by requiring pretreatment whenever industrial customers discharge phosphorus-rich water (commonly anything above 5 mg/L).</p>
<p>At the same time, tightening regulations and higher chemical costs mean that there’s less room for error. Plants that used to meet limits comfortably are now struggling to stay ahead. That pressure is showing up as added surcharges, unplanned maintenance, and higher disposal costs.</p>
<h2><b>How Americo Can Help</b></h2>
<p>At Americo Chemical Products, we help plants get phosphorus under control quickly and efficiently. Our solutions are designed to help you stay compliant, protect the environment, and lower overall operating costs.</p>
<p>Here’s how we do it:</p>
<ul>
<li aria-level="1">On-site audit and testing — we provide hands-on help to identify problem areas and fine-tune your system.</li>
<li aria-level="1">Custom chemical solutions — we create tailored blends that target phosphorus in your specific wastewater makeup.</li>
<li aria-level="1">Cost-focused programs — our custom treatments can maintain or potentially lower traditional water treatment chemical costs.</li>

Process methods for improving manufacturing sustainability

<p>Climate change and pollution pose direct challenges to the viability and profitability of manufacturers worldwide. The recent supply chain woes caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and ongoing geopolitical events demonstrate how upstream challenges including extreme weather can severely impact downstream manufacturers. <a href="https://info.microsoft.com/WE-DIGTRNS-CNTNT-FY21-10Oct-05-SustainabilityGoodforBusinessExecutivePlaybook-SRGCM3881_01Registration-ForminBody.html">Microsoft’s sustainability report for executives</a> highlights $54bn in insured losses in the manufacturing sector in 2020 due to “secondary perils.” These perils include extreme storms, flooding, and forest fires. Up to 60% of all insured losses in the sector resulted from this category. Such challenges are anticipated to increase through the next century and beyond.</p>
<p>Despite this, manufacturers lag behind other industries when it comes to thinking and talking about sustainable practices. When manufacturers <em>do</em> think about sustainability, they tend to focus on innovative new materials, potentially ignoring opportunities to optimize their processes.</p>
<p>No amount of sustainable practice will undo the effects of climate change, but they can contribute to lower operating costs, more efficient processes, and more competitive products in a market increasingly sensitive to social good value adds.</p>
<p>Americo Chemical specializes in providing beginning-to-end solutions for physical and chemical processes in manufacturing. Our Total Systems Approach considers product quality, total productivity, cost-effectiveness, and sustainability in equal measure. Let’s explore how Americo Chemical approaches sustainable manufacturing.</p>
<h2>What do we mean by “sustainable?”</h2>
<p>When you hear the word “sustainable,” your first thought is probably something about the environment. This is the most common way to use the word in a business context, but sustainability extends beyond just the environment. There are also social and economic contexts for sustainability.</p>
<p>For example, changing market conditions including more costly labour and materials can make an otherwise-profitable business unsustainable to operate. Bad workplace culture or poor compensation can make a business socially unsustainable, as its core workforce may leave for better opportunities.</p>
<p>Americo considers sustainability across all three of these dimensions: environmental, economic, and social. Let’s explore how Americo Chemical implements sustainability in its own practices, as well as ways we help clients improve their own sustainability.</p>
<h2>Americo’s sustainability commitment</h2>
<h3>Zero discharge facility</h3>
<p>Americo’s production facility is Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) compliant. This means that during production, no wastewater gets discharged to the environment. Waste materials are collected and handled appropriately. Where possible, water and other materials get cleaned and re-used in other processes.</p>
<h3>PFAS-free products</h3>
<p>PFAS substances are a group of chemicals used in a range of coatings and surface treatments. These chemicals—of which there are millions—typically provide non-stick, water resistant, and stain resistant properties to products. Think of Chemours’ well-known Teflon anti-stick pans. That’s PFAS in action.</p>
<p>While PFAS substances are useful, they’re also harmful to people and the environment. They are so-called “forever chemicals” that don’t break down naturally in the environment. Instead, they persist in ecosystems and even within organisms—humans included—contributing to a range of chronic health conditions including breast and testicular cancer, low fertility rates in men, and various hormonal disruptions.</p>
<p>PFAS and other forever chemicals are targets for regulation and restriction. Recently, the EPA set an official limit on PFAS levels in drinking water. Companies like 3M have made commitments to cease PFAS production by 2025.</p>
<p>Americo is a PFAS-free facility. We have elected not to offer PFAS products as part of our commitment to reducing our environmental footprint.</p>
<h3>Input and output analysis</h3>
<p>Americo operates its own business with the same quality management techniques we apply to each client. By understanding our manufacturing inputs, outputs, and processes inside and out, we’re continually working to improve our efficiency, safety, and environmental sustainability.</p>
<h3>Commitment to long-term employee satisfaction</h3>
<p>We’re proud of the number of long-term full-time employees at Americo. Superior processes are core to our offering. Maintaining a healthy, safe, and happy workforce who know our methodology and can effectively execute our processes ensures customer satisfaction, consistent product quality, and strong company culture. By putting people first, we address both social and economic sustainability.</p>
<h2>How can Americo help make manufacturing more sustainable?</h2>
<h3>Safe and sustainable alternatives to hazardous chemicals</h3>
<p>Safety and sustainability often go hand-in-hand. Safer and more convenient to handle chemicals are easier to use and dispose of properly. No employee wants to risk life and limb dealing with harsh chemicals if an alternative is available. In this way, safe chemistry contributes to social and economic sustainability, as reducing the risk threshold in your facility may increase worker satisfaction and employee retention.</p>
<p>Safer or less polluting alternatives sometimes carry a reputation for lesser efficacy or higher costs. While this may be true in some cases, customization and process adjustments can often mitigate these concerns. A consultation with our team may uncover safer options that don’t hamper your productivity or eat into your margins.</p>
<h3>Phosphate discharge monitoring and management</h3>
<p>While not all municipalities and regions have the same stringent requirements concerning phosphate discharge, it’s become a focus area for wastewater management.</p>
<p>When discharged, phosphates add phosphorus to the local environment. Phosphorus is an important building block for plant life, often acting as a limiting factor in plant growth rate—hence the use of phosphorus-based fertilizer in agriculture.</p>
<p>This becomes a problem when waterways become oversaturated with phosphorus. Disruptive and even deadly algae blooms can occur as a result. These explosions in algal growth result in “dead zones” where oxygen levels drop too low to sustain fish and other aquatic lifeforms. They can clog drains and other infrastructure, ruin recreational areas, and generate noxious odors.</p>
<p>As a result of these challenges, more and more local and state governments demand strict limits on the amount of phosphorus discharged from facilities of all types. We help manufacturers upgrade their wastewater management process, using precipitants, physical filtration, and other methods to reduce wastewater complexity before discharge. This not only protects local environments; there are significant cost-savings associated with decreasing the complexity of your industrial waste in the form of reduced disposal fees and less risk of fines.</p>
<h3>Bath life optimization</h3>
<p>Another way we assist companies in reducing their environmental footprint is by reducing their overall waste output. Many manufacturing processes rely on chemical baths. These baths may require frequent changeover for a variety of reasons: sludge formation, depletion of reactive chemicals, or other forms of contamination.</p>
<p>In many cases, we can increase the so-called “bath life” of your process. That may mean advanced filtration techniques, the use of coagulants or clumping agents to make sludge and debris removal easier, or the introduction of additives that prolong the reactive life of your baths.</p>
<p>By reducing bath changeovers through superior technology, your facility can squeeze more out of every dollar spent on process chemicals while lowering your waste output.</p>
<h3>Counterflow/chemical &amp; heat capture</h3>
<p>While waste is inevitable in manufacturing, there are ways to recapture a great deal of otherwise lost heat with the right planning and setup. In this way, companies can effectively “double dip” on some of their resources, reducing their overall consumption.</p>
<p>A counterflow setup exposes hot process water to cool intake water (or vice versa, depending on the process) in an efficient way, facilitating highly efficient heat transfer. By configuring a counterflow setup instead of a parallel setup, we can help facilities achieve significant utility bill savings by reducing heat waste.</p>
<h3>Equipment rehabilitation</h3>
<p>In many cases, newer equipment offers greater efficiency, including better water and energy efficiency that results in better sustainability. However, equipment changeovers are expensive, disruptive, and have a “pay-back period” before their up-front environmental footprint gets outweighed by more efficient operation. Consider the environmental footprint of an electric vehicle. Replacing a gas-powered car with an EV is a good long-term strategy to reduce emissions, but it may take thousands of miles of driving before the EV “breaks even” versus maintaining the older gas vehicle.</p>
<p>With these practical considerations in mind, rehabilitating equipment can improve its efficiency and extend its life, allowing facilities to budget for an upgrade on a schedule that works for them. By providing a longer runway for companies to upgrade their equipment, we can help make the transition to sustainable technology easier and more affordable.</p>
<h2>Conclusion: a path to sustainability for every manufacturer</h2>
<p>Whether due to a desire for cost-savings, out of a need to avoid costly fines and disposal fees, or stemming from a genuine personal commitment to sustainability, there are strong business cases for any manufacturer to consider optimizing their chemical processes.</p>
<p>On whatever scale you plan to improve your manufacturing sustainability, Americo Chemical is a valuable and experienced partner. Interested in learning more? Contact us today to schedule a free consultation.</p>

Enhancing Efficiency with Just-In-Time Chemical Blending and Delivery

<h2>Introduction</h2>
<p>Just-in-Time (JIT) manufacturing is a familiar concept to manufacturers of all kinds. Once known as the Toyota Production System due to its association with auto manufacturing techniques pioneered by Toyota, it’s now common practice across manufacturing sectors.</p>
<p>JIT aims to increase efficiency while reducing waste by producing and receiving goods only as they are needed. A more traditional manufacturing process relies on keeping large quantities of materials on-hand. This increases the physical footprint of manufacturing facilities while introducing risks like spoilage issues, material obsolescence, and inefficient resource management.</p>
<p>Though JIT has its own challenges—we all experienced supply chain disruptions during COVID that material warehousing at scale may have mitigated in some cases—it’s considered an efficient and effective best practice in many manufacturing scenarios.</p>
<p>Americo Chemical produces our custom solutions through a JIT model. This article will explain how JIT chemical supply works and why we believe it’s the best way to provide leading chemical solutions to manufacturers of all kinds.</p>
<h2>Conventional chemical production vs. JIT production</h2>
<p>In conventional chemical production, large quantities of pre-blended chemicals are produced and stored until needed. There are some natural benefits to this system: keeping materials on-hand can increase supply chain resiliency in some cases. Certain chemical production processes benefit from economies of scale, meaning that mass production and storage can be cheaper, at least in terms of up-front costs.</p>
<p>There are scenarios where conventional chemical production isn’t cost-efficient. Consider the added cost of storage, both for chemical suppliers and the customers they serve. Having months or years of supply at hand may seem like a good idea, but what if regulations change and your materials are no longer legal to use? What if your process chemicals experience spoilage over time, resulting in degraded performance or high amounts of waste?</p>
<p>A JIT production model blends a smaller quantity of chemicals to specification on an order-by-order basis. Provided the production process is efficient and the logistics system is resilient, this can result in decreased storage fees, less waste, and more possibilities to customize products.</p>
<p>Our quality management emphasis prioritizes continual process improvement. We work with manufacturers to identify and test chemical solutions to their biggest manufacturing challenges. This technique is most effective in a JIT system, where adjustments can be made per order until the highest-performance formulation is identified.</p>
<h3>JIT chemical supply breakdown: how JIT works in the chemical sector</h3>
<p>The following is an example JIT process in the chemical sector. Note the ability to collect feedback for continual performance improvements, something that is difficult to do under a conventional bulk supply model:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Demand Forecasting and Inventory Management</strong>
<ul>
<li>Analyze customer production data to predict chemical needs.</li>
<li>Maintain minimal raw material inventory, relying on a network of suppliers for quick procurement.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Production Planning and Chemical Blending</strong>
<ul>
<li>Schedule blending operations to align closely with customer demand and delivery schedules.</li>
<li>Use automated systems for precise mixing and blending to meet customer specifications.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Quality Control and Packaging</strong>
<ul>
<li>Conduct quality checks to ensure products meet standards.</li>
<li>Package chemicals safely and label with clear handling instructions.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Logistics and Delivery</strong>
<ul>
<li>Organize logistics to ensure timely deliveries, aligning them with customer production needs.</li>
<li>Use real-time tracking technologies to monitor shipments and adjust logistics as necessary.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Customer Integration and Feedback</strong>
<ul>
<li>Deliver chemicals directly to customer’s production lines or specified areas.</li>
<li>Collect feedback to refine the process and implement continuous improvements.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h3>Core benefits of JIT chemical blending and delivery</h3>
<h3>Reduced Waste</h3>
<p>By delivering exact quantities of materials on a consistent schedule, JIT production reduces the potential for waste. Whether through spoilage, obsolescence, mismanagement, or other issues, conventional production tends to be more wasteful. There’s a psychological component to waste, as well. Companies that draw materials from enormous reserves may be less lean in general; their workers may perceive the reserves as effectively endless, prompting them to be less careful about waste and inefficient use. It may also be harder to monitor and control material usage if the reserves are particularly large and monitoring systems are not enforced.</p>
<h3>Cost efficiency</h3>
<p>While JIT may forgo the economies of scale typical of mass production, which can reduce unit costs by producing large quantities of goods at once, it can still be highly cost-effective for customers. By delivering materials and products precisely when they are needed, JIT minimizes the costs associated with holding and managing inventory. JIT enhances operational efficiency by reducing waste and freeing up capital that would otherwise be tied up in excess inventory. This allows companies to allocate resources more strategically, investing in innovation or quality improvements that can lead to better products and services.</p>
<h3><strong>Customization and Flexibility</strong></h3>
<p>Just-in-Time production significantly enhances customization and flexibility in the chemical sector, allowing companies to tailor chemical blends to precise customer specifications on demand. JIT minimizes the need for large inventories, enabling manufacturers to quickly adapt to changes in market demands or regulatory shifts without the burden of excess stock. This flexibility not only reduces waste and storage costs but also allows chemical producers to rapidly incorporate new formulations or adjust existing ones, maintaining competitiveness and responsiveness in a dynamic market environment.</p>
<h3>Conclusion</h3>
<p>Just-in-Time production offers transformative benefits for the chemical sector by enhancing efficiency, reducing waste, and providing significant flexibility and customization capabilities. By aligning chemical production and delivery with the exact timing and specifications of customer demand, JIT minimizes the need for large inventories, thereby cutting storage costs and reducing risks associated with chemical spoilage and obsolescence. This approach not only supports better resource management and cost savings but also enables chemical manufacturers to swiftly adapt to industry changes and customer needs. Consequently, JIT helps chemical companies maintain a competitive edge, ensure high quality and compliance, and sustain customer satisfaction through tailored products and responsive service.</p>
