What happens inside the IMBOX machine?

The shoes are placed in the chamber of the IMBOX where the treatment takes place. The six nozzles inside the machine provide the footwear with an even coating.

The treatment take less than a minute to complete.

When the chosen treatment is finished, the shoes are dried within the chamber. Here, any excess particles are collected in an active coal filter, which means that the IMBOX is safe to use.
