Logistics

Danica currently has 18 units counting factories and commercial offices, ensuring the best logistics and efficiency in delivery schedules. The logistics department is made up of highly capacitated professionals, ensuring speed and quality. By means of a Call Center orders are carefully accompanied from receiving them until the final delivery, with all the logistics planning being based on applications of control and follow-up (software), aiming at better delivery of the materials within the deadlines established.

In the process of delivering materials, besides normal routines of checking and optimizing freight, Danica has trained professionals who follow up all the cargoes and deliveries, which are preceded by instructions for handling the products that accompany the documents.

Maintenance
Protective Plastic Film
Danica thermal insulating panels are supplied with a protective plastic film, applied on the covering surface. The purpose of this film is to protect the painting and the surface of the panels during transportation, handling, processing and installation, the fixing of accessories and the application sealants or adhesives.


Removal of the Film
1. This film should be removed as quickly as possible and simultaneously from all of the panels after they have been installed. (If the panels are not all exposed to the atmosphere at the same time, color differences, shades or shininess, may occur because the film will suffer over the length of time).


The cleaning frequency depends on environmental conditions at the place of installation. For commercial buildings, it is recommended that the panels should be cleaned every once or twice of cleaning the external glass.

1. The cleaning of the panels should be done manually, beginning at the top and working down, preferably when it is not sunny;

2. Abrasive or cutting products, such as sponges or hard brushes, steel wool, sandpaper, spatulas, sharp materials, etc., should not be used. These products can damage the pre-painted surface.


Suggested Cleaning Products
1. Commercial or industrial detergents diluted in water at the proportion of 5%;

2. For the removal of pitch, grease, oil, paint, graffiti, solvents can be used after taking the care to test these in small areas and the maximum contact time of the solvent with the panel surface should be 5 minutes;

3. DO NOT USE alkaline or very strong cleaning products, or those that contain potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, caustic soda, strong acids or abrasive products.


Note:
The project, construction, installation and all technologies relative to the products are the responsibility of the buyer, all activities relating to cleaning will be of the buyer's responsibility.

Recommendations for Transportation and Storage
To enable the characteristics and original qualities of the Danica thermal insulating panels to be preserved, care with the transportation and storage until installation, should be observed:

Transportation

1. Use an open truck and protect the load with canvas;

2. Spread the panels horizontally on a flat surface;

3. Stack the panels using chocks under and between them and tie them together so that they don't slide, observing the self supporting span;

4. Use corner protectors at the fastening points to avoid friction and damage to the panels.

Reception
1. Verify that the panels were transported according to the recommendations. Check that all products (panels, doors and accessories) are identified with a descriptive label.

2. For the manual unloading of the panels there should be the same number of men on the truck and on the ground;

3. When using a forklift to unload, the size and the distance between forks should be observed and a protective sheet should be used.


Handling
1. Do not drag the panels over the ground, floors, sidewalks, etc.

2. When using a crane to handle these panels, the panels should be supported on a wood or metallic pallet, taking care so that the cranes chain doesn't touch the side of the panels;

3. When handling the panels, always use the appropriate personal protection equipment (EPI) (e.g. gloves, boots, safety belts and glasses).


Storage
1. The panels, doors and accessories should be stored in a dry, clean, safe and protected place;

2. The panels should be stacked up using chocks under and between them and later tied together;

3. Panels that are exposed to bad weather should be stored on an elevated base, sloping and protected with canvas, to avoid the accumulation of water on the product and the possible fusion of the plastic to the steel;

4. The maximum stacking height should be 2 meters high.
