Turnarounds and shutdowns are essential for equipment maintenance, upgrades, and longevity in industrial plants. However, these operations come with inherent risks, particularly when it comes to chemical exposure.

Chemical accidents during turnarounds can lead to serious health hazards, environmental damage, and production delays. Diphoterine can play a critical role in counteracting these dangers, offering a powerful solution to help mitigate chemical exposure risks.

Understanding the chemical risk landscape

Industrial turnarounds involve a series of intricate tasks, such as equipment inspection, maintenance, and repairs. Often, these tasks require workers to interact with hazardous chemicals, including corrosive acids, caustic substances, and toxic solvents. Despite the utmost precautions, accidents can still occur, leading to skin and eye exposure. Immediate and effective measures are imperative to prevent injuries and minimize the long-term impact of chemical exposure.

Diphoterine: The innovative chemical decontaminate

Diphoterine, an active chemical decontamination solution, has become a powerful tool for responding to chemical accidents during turnarounds. This sterile and biocompatible solution is specifically designed to decontaminate and mechanically remove hazardous chemicals from the skin and eyes in a matter of seconds. Its unique composition helps in preventing and reversing chemical penetration and promotes faster healing, reducing the severity of chemical injuries.

The benefits of Diphoterine:

Rapid Action:

In cases of chemical exposure, immediate action is crucial. Diphoterine acts swiftly to stop chemical action and halt its damaging effects, minimizing injury severity.

Comprehensive Solution: 

Diphoterine is effective against a wide range of chemicals in a single protocol, offering a versatile solution to counteract various types of chemical exposures commonly encountered during turnarounds.


User-Friendly Application: 

The solution's user-friendly design allows workers to promptly apply Diphoterine to affected areas without the need for extensive training, making it an easily accessible tool in high-stress situations.


Reduced Downtime: 

By eliminating or dramatically minimizing injuries caused by aggressive acidic and caustic chemicals, Diphoterine helps reduce the downtime caused by chemical exposure injuries. This benefits the affected worker and contributes to the overall efficiency of the turnaround process.


Long-Term Impact: 

Rapid and effective treatment with Diphoterine can significantly reduce the long-term consequences of chemical exposure, preventing complications and ensuring a quicker return to work.
