Indana Steel, the global industrial safety leader, unveiled its newest innovation—Flange Guard—transcending workplace safety by putting an end to the threat of fatal spray-outs and leaks from high-pressure piping systems. The groundbreaking safety barriers are designed to stop hazardous chemicals such as acids, steam, and oils from leaking into the workplace, dramatically reducing workplace accidents, equipment losses, and environmental pollution. With state-of-the-art materials and cutting-edge technology, Indana Steel is rewriting the standards of industrial safety.
Industrial pipes face constant pressure, vibration, and chemical attack, and leakage becomes unavoidable. If left unregulated, the leaks will cause deadly damage, regulatory violations, and costly production shutdowns. Flange Guards, or Flange Spray Shields, provide a hardened protection by surrounding high-pressure spray-outs, guarding man and machine, and making strict compliance to OSHA, ANSI, and EPA standards. Through minimized compliance risk, lower maintenance costs, and improved workplace safety rates, these guards are an economic necessity in every industry worldwide. In chemical processing, pharmaceutical, water treatment, and food manufacturing business operations, to the oil and gas industry, safe and efficient business operations are dependent on Flange Guards.
PTFE (Teflon) Flange Guards are specifically well-suited for use within the chemical and pharmaceutical industries given their increased level of resistance towards high-strength chemicals and temperature. Multi-layer mesh-strengthened Stainless Steel (SS316) Flange Guards are employed in offshore or very corrosive applications. Polypropylene (PP) and PVC Flange Guards provide economical choices with medium chemical resistance and easy leak detectability. Transparent and lightweight, Polycarbonate Flange Guards provide instant visual inspection, while pressure- and temperature-resistant fabric Flange Guards provide excellent protection under severe conditions. Indana Steel's innovative Flange Guards establish standards for safety excellence, with new functionality for greater safety.
Litmus Leak Indicating Patch can be used to detect leaks before the leaks become disasters, allowing industries to treat potential risks before they turn into risks. Safe fasteners such as Velcro cutouts and drawstring locks provide a repeat fit and effortless installation, minimizing downtime. To ensure its commitment to quality, Indana Steel provides a 24-month replacement warranty on each Flange Guard, ensuring customers with unsurpassed dependability and durability. Proven in actual field usage, Indana Steel's Flange Guards have emerged as an industry changer regarding workplace safety.
One of the large chemical plants employing PTFE Flange Guards saw its maintenance costs reduce by 70% as well as a notable reduction in site accidents. One oil refinery employing stainless steel Flange Guards on high-pressure steam lines achieved an 80% reduction in safety violations and a notable reduction in burn injuries. These success stories reveal the significance of Flange Guards in hazardous industrial applications. Approaching nearer to its international reach, Indana Steel exports Flange Guards to top destinations like the United States of America, Europe, Saudi Arabia, Dubai, and Australia. Dedicated unabashedly to high-performance materials and austere testing, the company keeps extending the boundaries of industrial protection, gaining the confidence of industries all over the world.
Indana Steel is also investing in future-generation smart Flange Guards on the basis of Internet of Things (IoT) technology-based real-time leak detection sensors. The future-generation safety devices will provide real-time alerts to the maintenance teams so that the latter can take preemptive measures before the leak becomes a crisis. With the increasing level of workplace safety, such smart solutions will be a part of industrial risk management.
Flange Guards are not an afterthought—They're an intelligent investment in workplace safety. Stopping dangerous leaks, enforcing compliance, and optimizing peak performance, they are providing industries with their strongest line of defense against workplace hazards. Indana Steel's new products are helping companies create stronger, safer workplaces. Integrating these cutting-edge Flange Guards is not a question of regulatory compliance—it's about safeguarding people, assets and creating a healthy industrial future.

TikTok's Owner Wanted to Publish Books. Not Anymore.

When 8th Note Press launched in the summer of 2023, the small publisher had a big advantage over other new presses. It was started by the Chinese technology company ByteDance, the owner of TikTok, the wildly popular social media platform where viral endorsements can transform books into best sellers overnight. That was not enough, it seems, to build a successful publishing business. In late May, 8th Note Press began informing writers that it was shutting down and returning publication rights to the authors. News of the press's demise, which was reported earlier by the The Bookseller, came as a shock to authors who were swayed by the possibility that 8th Note could help engineer best sellers with elaborate marketing campaigns on TikTok. Instead, 8th Note has started taking down digital editions of their books, effectively unpublishing them. The literary agent Mark Gottlieb, who sold the debut novel 'To Have and Have More' to 8th Note, said the company was doing 'irreparable damage' to its authors by shutting down so haphazardly. While publishing imprints frequently come and go, the books and authors they publish are usually moved elsewhere within the parent company, rather than being taken out of circulation entirely. If a book is published then quickly disappears, it can be difficult to resell it to another publisher, Gottlieb said. 'They're wrecking careers in the process of doing this,' he said of 8th Note. 'If you're an author and this is your first book, what the history is going to show is that your book published and quickly went out of print.' 8th Note's precipitous fall was surprising, given its parent company's vast resources and reach. Just last year, the press seemed poised to expand. Last October, its executives announced a partnership with the publisher Zando to put out print editions of its books and distribute them to physical bookstores. The plan was to release 10 to 15 titles a year, with a focus on romance, romantasy and young adult fiction. Later, the imprint indicated to agents that it was expanding into science fiction and fantasy. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

Amazon Just Bet $4 Billion on South Korea's AI Boom -- Here's Why It Could Be a Game-Changer

Amazon Web Services (NASDAQ:AMZN) and SK Group are teaming up to build what could become South Korea's most powerful AI infrastructure project to date. The two giants are putting roughly $5.11 billion on the table$4 billion from AWS aloneto develop a hyperscale data center in Ulsan. Construction is scheduled to start in September, with a 100MW launch target by 2029. But that's just the beginning. SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won told investors the plan is to scale to one gigawatt down the road, potentially transforming Ulsan into a global nerve center for AI computing. The announcement wasn't just corporate theater. South Korean President Lee Jae Myung and tech leaders showed up in force, signaling just how strategic this move could be for the country's long-term growth. President Lee pointed out that building next-gen tech infrastructure outside the capital is more than a regional development playit might be a template for the nation's high-tech decentralization. Chey, for his part, sees the AI race as a core pillar of Korea's future economic engine. If SK can deliver on the capacity, this site may serve as a launchpad for global AI trafficnot just domestic. Investors were already connecting the dots. On Friday, AI-linked names rallied hard. SK Hynix (HXSCL) gained over 3%, Kakao popped 11%, and LG CNS surged 9%, lifting the KOSPI above 3,000 for the first time in over three years. The market response suggests traders aren't just excited about another data centerthey're betting this investment could be a catalyst for Korea's next AI leap.
