"Nina von C" invests in second FINESTFOG air humidification system

In the textile industry, sufficiently high air humidity (>50% r.h.) is particularly important. Karl Conzelmann GmbH&Co.KG from Albstadt is a leading manufacturer of high-quality women's underwear (Nina von C). A FINESTFOG air humidification system has been in use in the knitting factory since 2018. Now, Plant II has also invested in a new FINESTFOG air humidification system. The old mechanical atomisers are out of service and now 26 FINESTFOG nozzles ensure a precise climate in two areas of production. 

MGI Konica Minolta showroom in Paris with optimal air humidification

MGI and Konica Minolta Paris decided to equip the showroom and customer center with optimal and hygienic air humidification.

The necessary air humidification and water treatment are supplied by FINESTFOG. The assembly of the FINESTFOG system has now been completed.

In the approx. 3,000 m³ large hall, 35 nozzles are fully automatic for a uniform humidity of 50% r.h. to care. At the same time, the FINESTFOG reverse osmosis system delivers the perfect water quality for air humidification.

We are very happy about this showpiece.

Christmas 2020

Dear business partners, colleagues and friends of our company,

An unusual year is coming to an end. The situation around the Corona epidemic has changed our daily private and business life a lot. Now we all know what "home office" is and how "home schooling" should work. 

Many of us got to know our own country better during the summer or spent the annual holiday in our own region. We had more time to concentrate on essential things. The family was the centre of attention again. But the longer the time lasted, the more tense some situations became. 

And now we are all in the next "shutdown" again. I wish you a lot of strength and energy to make good and meaningful use of this time again and to get through it.

It was and is a difficult time for employees in companies, for businesses, the self-employed and micro-entrepreneurs. Quite a few people have to fear for their existence.

I hope that the state aid will help most of them to alleviate the greatest difficulties. 

Finestfog has had a successful year. I would like to say a big thank you to all our customers, suppliers, business partners and last but not least to all our employees. They have all contributed to this success. I have the impression that trust and cohesion in business have increased in these extraordinary times. 

We will not be sending any Christmas presents this year. We are giving a little of our success back to the most vulnerable. We have donated € 3,000.00 to Sternstunden.

The Sternstunden campaign of the Bavarian Broadcasting Corporation helps children in Bavaria, Germany and all over the world. 

I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Stay healthy!

Children's hospital in Bucharest receives 18 reverse osmosis systems

The Marie-Curie Children's Hospital in Bucharest will be equipped with 18 reverse osmosis systems at the beginning of 2021.

The project is being implemented together with IMSAT (Groupe SNEF).

The FINESTFOG team is looking forward to the implementation of this project.

Two new humidification projects in France

ALPHA SAS, based in Peaugres (07) south of Lyon, was founded in 1989. ALPHA SAS is a member of the independent printer group "ImpriFrance".

ALPHA decided to replace the exisiting Air Humidification system while the production hall has been enlarged.

The OFFSET printing and finishing zone, the CTP room and the storage have been equipped with the FINESTFOG high pressure nozzles system combined with the FINESTFOG Reverse Osmoses water treatment.

The new FINESTFOG system significantly improves production conditions.

The second project was carried out at IVE. “Impression Varoise d’Etiquettes” is located in Pontevès (83), south of France. They are a labels manufacturer for more than 30 years. 

The exisiting Air Humidification system has always resulted in higher maintenance cost.

IVE decided to replace the old system by a new FINESTFOG High Pressure nozzles system combined with a FINESTFOG Reverse Osmoses water treatment.

3 productions rooms and the warehouse have been equipped.

FINESTFOG Air Purifier

FINESTFOG now has a new air purifier in its range. The device is equipped with two HEPA H13 filters (front and rear). Also with two activated carbon and two pre-filters. The air quality is improved by an additional ionization and the integrated LED UV disinfection.

Thus germs, bacteria and viruses can be effectively filtered out of the air. A sensor measures the air quality, the temperature and the humidity.

The H 700 air purifier works fully automatically. It is suitable for rooms up to around 100m².

The necessary filter change is indicated so that there can be no incorrect operation.

FINESTFOG air purifiers can be used in classrooms, offices, medical practices, kindergartens, etc. The price per device is less than € 1,500.00 net (exact prices on request)

Major order received from Greece - Hatzopoulos from Thessaloniki invests in FINESTFOG air humidification

A. Hatzopoulus S.A. founded in 1931 is one of the largest packaging companies in Greece based in Thessaloniki.

The company with 380 employees exports its products to 35 countries.

In four production halls with a total room volume of around 35.000m³ and a fresh air supply of 230.000m³/hour. In the future, FINESTFOG air humidification will ensure a healthy climate.

A reverse osmosis with an output of 1.000 liters per hour provides the required pure water. The two high-pressure air humidification centers humidify fully automatically in 8 areas. The maximum humidification capacity is around 1.000 liters. The system will be delivered in 2020 and installed by FINESTFOG technicians.

Corona Studies: Humidity influences the spread of aerosols

New study results on COVID-19: SARS-CoV-2 spreads to a not inconsiderable proportion via aerosols, this is becoming increasingly clear. This could be counteracted with a certain level of humidity in closed rooms.

SARS-CoV-2 is likely to spread more strongly in dry rooms.
Physicists have evaluated ten studies that examined the influence of humidity on survival, spread and infection with influenza and various coronaviruses (SARS-CoV-1, MERS and SARS-CoV-2) between 2007 and 2020. Result: If the relative humidity of the room air is below 40 percent, the aerosols emitted by the infected absorb less water, are lighter and thus remain in the air longer. They can also cover a longer distance. At this level of humidity, the probability that virus-containing aerosols will be inhaled by non-infected people in the environment is higher than with moist air. The researchers from the Institute for Tropospheric Research in Leipzig therefore recommend, in addition to the usual measures such as keeping your distance, also to control the indoor air. A relative humidity of 40 to 60 percent can reduce the spread of SARS-CoV-2 and its absorption through the nasal mucosa.

FINESTFOG information - "strong together"

The corona pandemic poses unprecedented challenges for the whole world. FINESTFOG is also facing up to these challenges. The most important things first:
Our company remains open and will continue to be available to our customers and interested parties for questions and assistance.
The office team works in the company or in the "home office" and is always available during opening hours.
The production is running and the technical contact persons are available. We have no difficulties in procurement and are able to deliver all spare parts and equipment in time as usual.
Our technicians are still on the road. And this partly under difficult conditions, for this my special thanks!
Of course there are companies where service and maintenance cannot be carried out at the moment, we fully understand that.

The contact to our international dealers is intact and we are in active exchange about the problems and situations in the respective regions. This crisis knows no borders.

Basically we notice that our customers and partners always try to find reasonable solutions together with us. The good and fair cooperation over the many years pays off!
I would like to thank all our customers, suppliers, friends and interested parties for their loyalty, the good partnership and the "strong together" in these difficult times.

I would also like to express special thanks to our FINESTFOG team. The commitment of each and every one of them is exemplary! Everyone helps together, everyone is aware of their task and their responsibility.
Our company is well able to assess the challenges at the moment. The sensible budgeting of our company's resources and the great successes of the last few years give us the economic opportunities to overcome this crisis.
If everyone continues to comply with the official measures and our state continues to act seriously and prudently, we will all emerge from the crisis.
I wish you all strength, energy and above all health and look forward to every conversation and every feedback.
Stay healthy, all of you!

Christian Wagner, CEO

Activity of the corona virus in different climatic conditions

While combating the corona virus, there is a discussion about the climatic conditions in which the virus is active and therefore contagious.
Numerous studies have shown that the coronavirus survives longer when the temperatures are low and the air humidity is low. At high temperatures and a humidity of 40 - 60% rH however, the lifespan of the virus is reduced.

Especially indoors, the air humidity is very low during the heating period - sometimes below 20% rH. Ventilation does not help, since cold outside air contains little absolute humidity. Living, working and commercial rooms should be humidified.
Like dust, germs, bacteria and viruses are bound at high air humidity, they become heavier and sink to the ground. They are simply not as floating in high humidity as in dry air. In addition, healthy humidity protects the mucous membranes in the nose and throat from drying out. Mucous membranes are the body's protective shield against germs, bacteria and viruses. This means that higher air humidity significantly reduces the susceptibility to colds.

ZDF deals with the topic in an interesting report that explains the connection between climatic conditions and virus activity.

In Iran, we ensure a healthy climate at the country's largest textbook printing company (110 million books per year).

In the far north of Europe, BillerudKorsnäs in Karlstadt (Sweden) is humidifying a powerful FINESTFOG humidification system in one of the largest paper mills in the world.

And in Belgium, spectacular paper web moistening from FINESTFOG on three machines ensures that CHIYODA Europe in Genk no longer has any problems with electrostatic charges.

We have achieved a lot in the year of our 25th company anniversary.

But now is the time to enjoy Christmas and the turn of the year in peace. All the best, we'll see and hear each other in 2020!

FINESTFOG caters for fresh fruit and vegetables at logistic centers

Fresh fruit and vegetables have become an important part of the discounter’s business. For this reason one of the leading discounter paid special attention to this aspect when it came to the design and construction of three new logistics centres.

The logistics centres in Emstek, Langgöns and Bruckberg are responsible for the distribution of fruit and vegetables to the outlets. FINESTFOG humidifies the cold-storage rooms and the auxiliary halls. These have a volume of approx. 70,000 m3. Nearly 200 high-pressure nozzles with a humidification performance of approx. 600 litres per hour provide a relative air humidity of approx. 80% at a room temperature of 14 °C. This keeps the fruit and vegetables fresh and crisp prior to being loaded onto trucks.

For all three locations FINESTFOG supplied the entire water treatment technology plus two high-pressure air humidifiers and three compressed-air humidifiers for the cold-storage rooms.

Domatec tests FINESTFOG according to VDI 6022 Sheet 6

Domatec GmbH in Mühldorf on the Inn is a testing organization. Domatec employs a VDI-tested RLQ manager, a prerequisite for testing room air humidification systems in operation on the operator’s premises.

Domatec has now tested a FINESTFOG high-pressure air humidification system according to the guidelines set out in VDI 6022 Sheet 6. The RLQ manager performed the following tests at the Mayr printing works in Miesbach: airborne germ measurements, water sampling at various system points, checks on the installation situation, review of the technical documentation, the maintenance contracts and other records. The FINESTFOG air humidification and water treatment systems passed the test with flying colours. The operator will now receive a test protocol from Domatec and a test mark. Having been successfully tested to VDI 6022 Sheet 6, the FINESTFOG system can now sport another test mark, in addition to DGUV-certified »Optimized Air Humidification«.
Further tests on FINESTFOG systems in action are planned for 2015.

Detailed test results are available directly from FINESTFOG.
