For OEMs and their suppliers, margins are thin and the economy is tight. Globalization and
rapid mergers have re-engineered and re-tooled the entire automotive landscape. OEMs are
continuously requesting more from their suppliers, while at the same time demanding reductions
in costs. Companies that prosper in this highly competitive market are the ones that pay attention
to details in their planning and processes.They are constantly looking for ways to streamline,
eliminate waste, and reduce cost.
Regional sales managers are
strategically located throughout the
U.S. We also have a global sales team
coordinating customer requirements
in Mexico, China, Southeast Asia,
Japan, India, Europe, Australia, South
America, and wherever Daubert

VCI PRODUCTS FOR AUTOMOTIVE PRODUCTION
PART/ASSEMBLY
Body Systems • Engine Systems • Powertrain Systems
Packaging has become a priority concern of quality-conscious OEMs and suppliers that choose
to reduce costs by manufacturing tools and parts in Leading Competitive Countries (LCC). In
these situations, proper packaging is essential to realizing the overall cost-saving goals. Daubert
Cromwell has a proven track record of collaboration with the big six automotive manufacturers
(General Motors,Toyota, Ford, DaimlerChrysler, Renault-Nissan, and Honda) and their suppliers
in order to eliminate packaging waste, produce defect-free parts, reduce labor cost, deliver
realistic packaging budget numbers, and drive out cost to maintain profitable margins for both
the OEMs and their Tiers.
FILM Premium Metal-Guard™, Metal-Guard™, Ferro-Film®, Clear Pak®
Daubert Cromwell films exceed all the rigorous demands for corrosion protection in a
lean global manufacturing environment.The proprietary formulation of corrosion inhibitors
is integrally blended into the film, not superficially applied.The VCI volatilizes inside the
packaging environment, protecting the metal with an invisible, effective, barrier that prevents
moisture, salt, oxygen, dirt, and other corrosion-causing materials from depositing directly
on the surface.
Daubert Cromwell uses custom clearance colors that allow for easy visual inspection
and identification of parts.The easy-to-use, safe, effective packaging is good for long-term
storage, export shipments, in-process assembly, and more.
• 1–8 mil thickness options.
• Formulations to meet unique applications
and fit into any program budget.
• Odorless, safe, non-toxic, recyclable.

recesses and cavities, choose VCI chips. Stock and custom size chips are coated in a range
of proprietary VCI formulations to protect virtually any metal.
Engine Blocks • Chassis • Pumps • Body Systems
Daubert Cromwell liquids are specially formulated to provide effective corrosion
protection for metals in lay-up and preservation applications, during and after hydrostatic
testing, and in all types of indoor/outdoor storage conditions. Liquids can be easily applied
via dip, spray, or brush.
Uncertainties in customer demand.
More complex variations in product mix.
High cost associated with carrying inventory.
Unfamiliarity with barriers and regulations in Leading Competitive Countries (LCC).
Award-winning EVAPO-RUST™ washes away surface rust with a unique, non-acidic, waterbased solution. It works at a pH of 6.1 to 7 (neutral) through selective chelation, a process
in which a large synthetic molecule forms a bond with metals and holds them in solution.
It will not affect iron/metal compositions, plating, or even non-oxide paint coatings.

SPECIALTY Daubrite® emitters, Nox-Rust Chips, Powders, Foam
Daubrite emitters prevent corrosion in closed spaces.When the
corrosion-inhibiting vapors are released inside the enclosure, they form
an invisible barrier of VCI protection on the metal. Emitters are safe,
economical, easy to install, and last for years.
Types:
• Daubrite packets, protect 1 cu. ft.
• Daubrite disks and pouches to protect 5 cu. ft. and 10 cu. ft.
• VCI foam for non-abrasive, flexible cushioning and wrapping.
• Chips, with any VCI formulation.
