The orientation of IONEX personnel is technical, and engineers and designers are on staff to provide detailed design, development and analysis of highly specialized equipment and custom-designed systems to meet our customers specialized needs. Our systems typically utilize adsorption processes for hazardous airborne chemical removal and our personnel have knowledge and experience in systems using activated charcoal, silver zeolites and precious metal catalysts. Due to the highly dangerous nature of processed materials, IONEX also provides special remote servicing and bag-in/bag-out servicing techniques.
In 2005, IONEX created the IOSERV Division, which handles all of our customers spare part and field service needs. The IOSERV Division is on hand to provide excellent customer service in support of our custom-designed systems.
