ROI
When compared to the costs associated with maintenance and equipment loss as a result of corrosion (not to mention operator safety), dehumidification is an inexpensive and necessary investment. The GAO has stated that dehumidification is one of the most effective actions that can be taken toward corrosion prevention and has documented return on investment at up to a staggering 80:1.
Cocoon’s mothballing systems have a number of distinct advantages, such as:
Comprehensive Protection
From entire plants to specific systems or critical components, Cocoon integrates state-of-the-art technology and expertise to provide the most innovative and effective solution. In addition to corrosion prevention, dry air dehumidification also helps prevent mold, mildew, and condensation from forming.
Cost-effective
Cocoon can recommend and supply the design, equipment, supplies and techniques necessary to deliver systems that are flexible and save money, thereby delivering ROI.
Not HVAC-based
Cocoon’s solutions protect against corrosion without requiring heating and cooling temperature control, resulting in greatly reduced energy costs.
Environmentally Friendly
The systems we design and install do not use nitrates, chromates, inert gaases, volatile organic compounds or other dangerous substances. They are non-toxic, environmentally friendly and, importantly, pose no safety hazards to employees.
Accessible
Mothballed facilities can be accessed during lay-up for repair or inspection without jeopardizing performance.
Fast Reactivation
Cocoon’s solutions do not require re-assembly of equipment, removal of hard-to-handle temporary coatings or other techniques that may impede reactivation.
Turnkey Installation
Cocoon provides custom systems that are designed according to the specific requirements of each application. The process begins with a review and analysis of those requirements resulting in a recommendation based upon delivery of a fail-safe solution. Upon approval, the system is ordered and installed along with controls and monitoring devices. Once tested, Cocoon trains personnel to ensure smooth and successful operation.
On Time, On Budget
In an independent Supplier Performance Review conducted by Dunn & Bradstreet Corporation, customers rated Cocoon as “meeting” or “exceeding” expectations in all performance categories. Most importantly, when asked to rank “Total Cost of Project,” all of Cocoon’s customers rated us as “exceeding” expectations.
