Official title: Sigmapac Engineered Services Inc. - Environmental Compliance Approval (air)
A metal fabrication facility in Scarborough wants approval to release air emissions from paint booths, welding exhausts, and heating equipment. The chemicals include xylenes, ethylbenzene, and industrial compounds used in coatings.
