Site Investigation at a Closed Manufacturing Facility Lomazzo, Italy
This manufacturing facility in Lomazzo, Italy was originally developed in the 1930s as a factory for manufacturing shoe-making tools, and was enlarged over the next several years. Beginning in the 1960s, operations at the facility consisted primarily of production of thermostats, gas valves, sensors, and timers for a number of applications. Manufacturing activities included shearing and molding of metal coils. Processes at the facility involved the use of cooling/cutting oils and perchloroethylene (PCE) as a degreaser. Manufacturing operations at the facility have since been terminated.
