Sampling System Supervision and Inspection

PF Global is a leader in the inspection and oversight of mechanical sampling systems. Our authorized, independent sampling inspectors can inspect your entire system and perform sampling audits and inspections prior to bias tests or when you need to make significant changes. Our experts ensure consistency in representative samples taken with a mechanical sampling system using stringent quality controls and state-of-the-art tools and methods. REPORT CONTENTS Our mechanical sampling inspection report provides you with important information on non-standard compliance issues. Our inspections and inspections also ensure that potential operational or maintenance issues are uncovered that could adversely affect sampling activities. Our staff of experienced sampling engineers perform detailed inspections and inspections and provide reports on the operation and general condition of the facility. In order to do this, it is necessary to examine the facility according to its original design features, current condition and operating conditions, and determine whether it operates in accordance with the sampling standards in force. The inspection report to be submitted will inform you of compliance with relevant standards and successful sampling practices. Maintenance issues will also be uncovered and some recommendations will be made to ensure compliance. TECHNICAL INSPECTIONS Before the deviation tests, a technical inspection of the mechanical sampling system must be made. In this way, the possibility of deviations related to the sample can be revealed just before the test. Doing this increases the chances of the deviation test being successful, eliminating the need for further investigation, corrective action, and additional testing.

Transport Your Fertilizers Safely

Fertilizers belong to a broad category of cargo known as "Chemicals". About 50 million types of fertilizers are transported around the world each year. According to the UN's Comtrade database, 90% of these shipments are loose and liquid cargoes. According to the International Fertilizer Association (IFA), the demand for mineral fertilizers has increased almost sixfold over the past 50 years. The leading countries in the field of mineral fertilizers are densely populated China and India, which account for one-third of the total demand, and the United States and Brazil. The world's five largest producers - China, the United States, India, Russia and Canada - are responsible for approximately 60% of the total global production of agrochemicals. The list of most frequently imported fertilizers includes nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus, as well as blended fertilizers. The main players in this market are specialized agrochemical companies such as Agrium, Mosaic, PotashCorp, OCP, EuroChem, PhosAgro and Uralkali. According to IFA, the growth of the world's mineral fertilizer production capacity so far exceeds the growth in demand, but the situation in some segments will change in the future. Fertilizer manufacturers, traders and consumers are constantly in search of solutions to optimize logistics costs, which significantly affect the final costs of goods. In order to successfully sell logistics services in the chemical industry, the cargo, that is, its properties, storage and transportation conditions, must be fully examined.
