Polygon Finland has joined forces with Danotec Oy and Tehokuivaus Oy to establish a Major & Complex Claims team focusing on large property damages. All three companies belong to the Polygon Group and this collaboration will strengthen both human and physical equipment resources when handling large claims.

Zurich Insurance Group, a global leader in property, casualty, and life insurance products, discusses their partnership with the Polygon-owned business, Plastic Surgeon. The global leader is working towards becoming one of the most responsible and impactful businesses in the world. Plastic Surgeon’s sustainable damage management approach is helping Zurich to achieve this environmental agenda by restoring instead of replacing damaged items, reducing its impact on the environment.

As a result of Hurricane Ida this fall, the Central Chabad Library in Brooklyn, New York, experienced severe water damage. The lower level of the library flooded, causing damage to approximately 5,000 seforim and books. The quick action and skills of the Polygon US team ensured that the affected artifacts could be restored.

Back in 2015-2017, Polygon’s indoor air researchers identified issues in Vääksy, a co-educational property, owned by the municipality of Asikkala, in Finland. Indoor air and structural surveys, conducted by Polygon at the time, identified conditions that would suggest there was an indoor air problem in the premises.

There are many causes of moisture damage and there are a variety of drying methods that can be chosen to return materials to their pre-incident condition. Polygon Norway has recently introduced Vacuum Drying, which involves establishing negative pressure under affected fabrics. This draws the water and moist air out of the materials. Vacuum Drying is a targeted method which means that only the affected area needs to be treated.
