Air Guide and Back Support New innovative options for Mark Q MCI is now introducing a new air guide and a new back support.* Until now these parts have only been produced in aluminum. The new materials reinforce the parts by increasing the flexibility and the elasticity of the parts. The new air guide is made of reinforced PVC (RPVC). This is traditional PVC with added high impact resistant material. Air Guide and Back Support (patent pending) During impact the air guide is very flexible. Advantages of new Air Guide Reduced maintenance and repair costs Very strong against impact damage also in frozen condition. Highly flexible - no permanent deformation or damage during container operation. Corrosion free, not impacted by water, chemicals and cleaning detergents. PVC is less valuable, thus less likely object for pilferage than aluminum. EPDM back support further reduces repair costs from damage and material pilferage. After impact the air guide revert to the original shape. Less environmental impact Less energy required for production of RPVC (compared to Aluminum). RPVC is recyclable.
