But we believe there is an especially good case in favour of steel... The steel box is tougher. It withstands dockside battering better. A steel box costs less to buy- less to repair. Then comes a big BUT... What about corrosion on steel under sea-going conditions? That's where York's ALCH EM process comes in. We believe that there is nothing so thorough elsewhere in the container industry. It transforms the surface of steel, eliminating itsinherenttendencyto rust. Here's how. Descaled and degreased parts pass automatically through: IZinc phosphate spray converts surface of steel into a non-ferrous zinc crystal - a powerful rust inhibitor. 2 Hot chromate rinse completes chemical change, creates a non-metallic surface and inhibits electrolytic corrosion. 3 Phenol epoxy aluminum immersion in 4200 gallon tank to provide all-over aluminum coating: baked hard, prior to assembly. 4 Epoxy stoving undercoating applied in automated booth. 5 Amino-Alkyde stove enamel finish applied by airless sprays. 6 Stove bake at 325°F gives hard, even finish highly resistant to salt spray. Complies with Ministry of Defence (UK) Spec 1053. And that's it, the most thoroughly protected steel container you can buy I What price ALCH EM protection 7 Effectively... nothing. You pay no more for York's ALCH EMIZED containers. The longer life, the lower maintenance costs come as a bonus. Like to know more about York Containers? Send back the coupon and we'll quote you.
