In close collaboration with the UK-based Solvents Industry Association (SIA)<\/a>, ESIG is currently updating the Solvents and Static Electricity and Solvents and IBCs films.<\/p>\n

We are in the final stages of filming and expect to complete the work in July.<\/p>\n

Both films will be available in 6 languages: English, French, German, Italian, Spanish and Greek.<\/p>\n
