"Most of our lab machines are imported from Japan, Germany or the UK and these machines are precise, sensitive and delicate. So we implemented a controlled environment laboratory and chose an Atlas Copco compressor for delivering quality air from the very start."

"Our research cubicles design compounds for sectors, all the way from agriculture to aerospace and oil and gas verticals. Most of their lab machines are imported from Japan, Germany or the UK and these machines are precise, sensitive as well as delicate since they test critical rubber parts.
Recognizing this sensitivity, we implemented a controlled environment laboratory which controls humidity and other environmental factors. Our Atlas Copco compressor has been delivering air since the inception of the lab and the quality of air from the compressor has ensured trouble-free machine operations while maintaining quality and consistency."
