One paper mill worker’s recent personal experience with Defog It antifog has now become safety breakthrough for the Southeast U.S. facility of a multinational paper manufacturer.
After the worker, who’d received Defog It from a friend, saw his safety glasses stay fog free in the paper mill’s heat, steam and changing temperatures, he did a “secret demonstration” for his supervisor. As a result, Defog It has now become a standard safety offering for all employees.
For the secret demonstration, the worker walked the Plant Superintendent from a 68o room directly to dryer hoods of about 145o. “I just had my super walk over to my work station with me, and lifted up the hood,” the worker explains. “His safety glasses fogged. Mine didn’t. That’s when I showed him the Defog It towelette in my pocket.” That demonstration triggered an order for Defog It antifog cloths for the whole plant workforce.
“Keeping safety glasses from fogging in paper mills is a constant struggle with high heat and hot steam pouring out from equipment,” says John Swett, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Nanofilm, maker of Defog It. “Defog It stops dangerous fogging and increases safety.”
First used by the military worldwide, Defog It is the proven safety choice in the toughest workplace environments where heat, cold, humidity and exertion cause fogged safety eyewear. It’s used in utilities, pulp and paper, mining, chemical processing, forestry, law enforcement and other industries. The product is safe and effective on safety glasses, goggles and faceshields.
Lab tests also confirm the antifog’s high performance. In one test, a lens treated with Defog It was held over constant hot steam for 60 minutes without fog forming. Similar products failed in as little as 5 minutes. In another test, lenses coated with Clarity Defog It were moved between cold and hot environments 100 times without fog forming.
