Alamask Masking "The Art And Science Of Odour Masking"
In industry, as well as our domestic lives, we are continually exposed to an endless variety of potent and obnoxious odours, which affect our environment and well-being.
Most of these odours are produced as a direct result of our modern industrial society, new production techniques and chemical processes.
These malodours need to be successfully masked or neutralised, without interfering or modifying the chemical make up of the final product.
The Arriva Solution
Arriva has researched and produced the exclusive Alamask® range of masking fragrances proven to counteract malodours for industrial and institutional applications.
Arriva's Alamask odour counteractant and masking agents are designed and formulated to be added into problem odour bases or products without modifying or interfering with their chemical make up or efficacy.
Arriva has developed, utilising years of experience gained solving odour problems for clients, a range of Alamask specialty products that effectively mask, deodorize and / or neutralise a vast and diverse cross section of product groups and applications, for example, petrochemical, agriculture, paint, printing, industrial/metal coatings, sewage treatment, waste disposal, etc.
The blend of natural oils, potent olfactive chemicals and specialty bonding agents will eliminate even the most potent and obnoxious base odours. The addition of an emulsifying agent assists with the dispersion of oils and fats to add to the overall neutralising effect.
Alamask range can be formulated for all of the following product types:
- Water based
- Oil based
- Solvent based
- Alcohol based
- Resin based
- Powder based
- Wax based
- Surfactant based
- Acid / Alkali based
Arriva's Alamask range is currently being used in the following problem industry areas:
- North Sea Oil Drilling Rigs as a lubricating oil deodoriser
- Petroleum distillers are using masking for recycled oil to be re-sold
- Sewage treatment plants provided with an odour counteractant
- Adhesive bases given a strong solvent base odour counteractant
- Wool processing to neutralise fatty wool odours and give a clean fresh final product
- Plastic manufacturing covering base odours in both hot and cold base applications
- Rubber manufacturing to masking acrid / sulphur base odours
- Alcoholic based cleaners, which neutralise cheap alcohol odour giving a clean / fresh effect
- Landfill and demolition sites for odour control/masking and dust containment
