Visy Plastics

Airocle worked closely with Visy to help create better working conditions for employees in their plastics division.

The Challenge

Part of the packaging giant Visy, “Visy Plastic” is the company’s plastic recycling and remanufacturing division. They offer forward-thinking and closed-loop packaging that meets the evolving needs of industry and customers. Visy collects mixed plastics, sorts them into categories like PET and HDPE, and remanufactures them into new plastic packaging products.

The recycling  and remanufacturing process generates significant heat and moisture, creating humidity levels similar to those of a rainforest. To ensure a safe and comfortable working environment, Visy needed an effective ventilation solution to control moisture levels and maintain optimal conditions within the facility

The Solution

We conducted a full assessment of the recycling facility for Visy, then put together a proposal of what was required to relieve the high heat load and moisture in the air. As part of this, we estimated that by installing natural ventilation products, they would have full ROI within 4 years.

Within 8 weeks of our proposal being accepted, we had installed an entirely new ventilation system for Visy, with the actual installation taking around 3 weeks.

The Results

The reduction in heat and moisture was almost immediate. Otto Szolosi, Project Engineer at Visy, was delighted with the project and commented that the company had achieved ROI on the overall project within two years, rather than four.

Building comfort and work productivity significantly increased as a result of installing the 1 Series2 Series Ridge/Slope ventilators and A Series wall louvres.
