Ford's Environmental Quality Office selected two packed-bed desorbers to control the VOC emissions from their paint booths. Ford is unique, as they are the only Auto OEM in the U.S. to use solvent-borne paint for primer, base, and clear-coat.

With a capture efficiency over 95% and a destruction removal efficiency over 98%, Oakville is a model of environmental best practices. The net environmental impact of Ford's plant is lower than other Auto OEMs that use low-VOC paint and exhaust it directly without abatement.

After purchasing the Charleston facility for painting of their new 787 Dreamliner, Boeing selected Encore Automation, a TKS Industrial subsidiary, to provide advanced auto-finesse robots for automated sanding during their aerospace fuselage painting process.

Boeing has begun production of the two existing 787 models here. And it recently began assembling the largest Dreamliner, the 787-10, built exclusively in South Carolina. Encore's unique auto-finesse sanding system allows Boeing to scale production while controlling fuselage paint quality.

For their new state-of-the-art manufacturing facilty, Honda chose a TKS drybooth for painting the 2018 Acura TLX. Honda's first drybooth in North America, it is a model of energy-efficiency.

Using a limestone-based paint overspray capture technology, Honda will save millions of dollars in energy costs and reduce their net emissions by millions of tons of CO₂. The limestone filter combination offers a 99.9% filtration, guaranteeing the cleanest, particle-free air.

Nissan awarded TKS a turn-key contract for their new paint shop in Smyrna, including design, engineering, fabrication, installation and commissioning for the building, booths, ovens, conveyor, robots, paint circulation and all paint process equipment.

TKS' project managers delivered an innovative paint shop that won awards for energy-efficiency from Energy Star. One of the key innovations was the use of jet fans in lieu of traditional building HVAC duct. The jet fans both reduced upfront capital cost and reduced energy use during operation, saving money and the environment.
