Recycling Paper Products | Zerust VCI Corrosion Inhibitors

Environmental And Safety Information Continuous research and testing of Zerust^® polyethylene corrosion inhibiting film systems is carried out in our laboratories around the world. This effort is undertaken to ensure that our customers will receive the most efficacious, safe, and environmentally benign products possible. One indication of the safety of Zerust^® films is a letter from the United States Food and Drug Administration that allows its use for protecting empty metal food cans prior to filling. Another indication is the laboratory studies, which were carried out by an independent European research organization and reviewed by the German Cancer Institute. The German Cancer Institute had no objection to the use of Zerust^® corrosion inhibiting products in German factories at the conclusion of the study. Specific test reports and recommendations are available upon request.
