The challenge
Protecting new auto parts from seasonal humidity
New auto parts with metal components are susceptible to corrosion and rust if exposed to air moisture. And New York late summer humidity could spell trouble for any auto parts manufacturer. For one plant high summer temperatures were causing serious problems for production runs and to make matters worse, their existing rooftop conditioner units just weren't up to the job.
They knew they couldn't continue production under these conditions, but any delays in production would be extremely costly. In search of a reliable solution, they turned to the experts at Aggreko.
