Quality and Environment

Power behind the argument

Being a world leader is one thing.
Developing products that are truly world leading is something completely different.
Over the years, we have developed the world's strongest system of mesh panels in close collaboration with the market. For our development department it is important to listen to you, our customers, so that we can continue developing systems that are even more valuable to the users.

Documented tests

It is just as important to test designs and the safety of the products that are released onto the market. In the Troax test lab, our panels are subjected to brutal tests using energies from 300 to 2000 joules. We test the collapse point, document all the values and ensure that the components qualify for inclusion in the world's strongest system of mesh partitions.

Comply with the Machinery Directive

Naturally, Troax system for machine protection complies with the requirements of the Machinery Directive, which sets out the requirements machinery must meet in EU countries and others. In addition, we have introduced our own protection classes, based on European and American test standards, for the shelving systems in our range of warehouse fittings.

Environmental protection is fundamental

Troax has taken extensive measures to minimise out impact on the environment. But the work to save energy and minimise our emissions continue.
We are certified according to the environmental management system ISO 14001 and the quality management system ISO 9001, which guide our work to improve the environment and reduce our impact. Here are some examples.

1. Use energy efficiently:

   In order to use energy efficiently, the facility in Hillerstorp has a system that controls ventilation, temperature, compressors, boilers and the powder coating line in detail.
   All lighting in the production facility is programmed. To recycle heat from the welding fumes, we have installed a filtration unit that uses heat from the 25 degree air in a more efficient way, without making the facility dirty.

2. Minimising emissions:

   We have replaced LPG with natural gas, which is a much cleaner fuel, and reduced out emissions by 45 per cent. We look after our polluted water ourselves. This is first filtered and boiled, then the steam is cooled and reused in the process. What remains is a residue with a high level of oil that is sent to the incinerator. We previously sent 240 cubic metres of polluted water to be processed each year, now we send six cubic metres. This is a gain, not least in terms of reduced transportation.

3. Reduce transport:

   Instead of receiving deliveries of pre-mixed bottles of protective gas, we mix the gas ourselves. Now the tanker brings the gas once a month instead of once a week. We constantly strive to reduce the amount of transport.
