of leaking vent gas prevented

Emission Reduction

Our innovative EMISSIONGUARD™ TR² Packing Rings have prevented an estimated 20,173,000 Nm³ (693,144,000 scf) of gas from leaking through the vents of packing cases mainly in the petrochemical and natural gas compression industry. This reduction in emissions is equivalent to 60,500 metric tons of CO₂, which compares to 150,191,000 miles driven by an average gasoline-powered passenger vehicle.
