Carbide

We also maintain close relationships with outside testing firms that provide us with the capabilities for scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive x-ray analysis, gas chromotography, and infrared spectroscopy for those times when a closer investigation is needed. Finally, every reusable shipping container, from a 5,000 lb flo-bin to a 40,000 lb tanker or 180,000 lb railcar is inspected prior to being filled with calcium carbide. These containers have built-in safety features that need to work properly in order to safely shipped and handled. Any issues are repaired in our shop. A system is also in place whereby any customer-found problems with containers are also certified to be repaired.
