Dual-function anti-adhesive and tar remover for use in asphalt mixing plants and by transport companies

- Anti-adhesive / bitumen-remover
- Improved occupational safety
- Made from new-generation
vegetable oil esters
- Completely biodegradable

DESCRIPTION

VIA 3000 is a concentrated liquid intended for use as an anti-adhesive for removing bituminous mix, for the manufacture and transportation of road surfacing materials.

VIA 3000 is a cleaning fluid specifically designed to replace fuel oil and rapeseed methyl esters. It complies directly with the expectations of site managers, safety coordinators and operating managers in terms of occupational health and safety and the environment, and in terms of performance and compatibility with regard to equipment and the working environment.

Better formulation for safety

VIA 3000 is non-flammable and eliminates the obligation for workshops in the usage zone to be classified as ATEX zones (French administrative order of 8 July 2003). At bitumen-mixing stations, VIA 3000 takes the place of fuel oil, which can cause fires. Fuel oil has a flash point of 55°C, so is not suitable for use in an environment with a temperature of 160°C.

Better formulation for health

VIA 3000 does not contains solvents so does not emit vapours. In addition, it is non-irritating and non-sensitising, so has very little dehydrating effect on lipo-cutaneous tissue. This formulation does not contain any substances listed as carcinogenic, mutagenic, toxic, reprotoxic, harmful, irritant, sensitising, corrosive or hazardous for the environment (French administrative order of 9 November
2004). VIA 3000 does not cause any occupational diseases. It is not subject to any particular medical surveillance. Never use fuel oil available on a site and classified as a class 3 carcinogen.

Better formulation for the environment

VIA 3000 eliminates the need to comply with French administrative order of 29 May 2000 pertaining to VOC emissions.

VIA 3000 is completely biodegradable and breaks down quickly. Thus, in the
event of accidental spillage, it is not harmful for the environment or local populations. It does not give rise to the need for authorisation or notification of use with respect to the administrative authorities (French decree 2002-680).

VIA 3000 is readily and completely biodegradable according to the OECD 301B test (monitoring of CO2 emissions during breakdown).

Better formulation for waste management

VIA 3000 is classified as NHIW (non-hazardous industrial waste). Following use, it can be collected free of charge for value enhancement.

VIA 3000 is formulated using renewable ingredients that are 100% of vegetable origin and that have been subject to a lifecycle analysis. (ISO 14040)

APPLICATIONS

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

Use undiluted or diluted, preferably by spraying, in skips, shuttles and drag bar conveyors.

Use diluted for truck bed spray pipes. Use from 10% in water as anti-sticking agent until pure for cold mixed asphalt removing.

For cleaning operations, use undiluted as a spray or applied with a brush.

Leave to act, then rinse with water.

We cannot be held liable for any application that is not compliant with our instructions and recommendations.
