An empty can of "Lechler 04 380 Polydur Zinc Putty", a universal knifing polyester putty of medium grain with very high filling power. Suitable to fill big imperfections on normal steel sheets and zinc coated steel sheets of car bodies and industrial vehicles. Produced by Ponte Chiasso (Como), the Italian subsidiary of the German paint company, Lechler. Ponte Chiasso gained its independence from its parent company, Lechler, in 1910. This can ended up on Lebanese territories due the toxic waste deal between the Italian Mafia and the Lebanese Forces. This image was taken by Pierre Malychef in the late 1980s.

Two cans of paint and coating, produced by the Italian chemical company, Industrie Vernici Italiane ("Italian Paint Industry") stylized as I.V.I, that specialized in the production of paints. Starting 1983, I.V.I, then-majoritarily owned by Fiat, was gradually sold to the American multinational company, PPG Industries Inc. The selling of the entire shares was effectuated in 1992. Following a lawsuit filed by American environmental organizations, Penn Environment and Sierra Club, in 2012, PPG Industries, Inc. was found liable in 2018 for decades of pollutants discharge in the Allegheny River.

These cans ended up on Lebanese territories due the toxic waste deal between the Italian Mafia and the Lebanese Forces. The author of this image is unspecified.

Close-up of a barrel with a sheet of paper taped to it on which it is handwritten in Italian "SACCHI SPORCHI Di ALLUMINIO - MAGNESIO" ("Dirty aluminum - magnesium bags"). The duct tape that is securing the sheet of paper on the barrel is labeled "RORER ITALIANA S.p.A." with the logo of RORER. The latter focuses on the production of organic fine chemistry, pharmaceuticals, machines, and macromolecular chemistry and polymers. The last patent published by the company was on April 2, 1987.

A barrel of what appears to be like polyester resin, produced in Italy by SIRIC, a company whose main activity was the production of unsaturated polyester resins, about 12,000 tons per year, used for fiberglass boats, fiberglass products and artificial marble. The factory has been closed since the 1980s, but investigations and reclamation continued due to the spilling of dangerous materials into the ground and the subsequent discovery of underground deposit of poisonous waste on February 14, 1992. This barrel ended up on Lebanese territories due the toxic waste deal between the Italian Mafia and the Lebanese Forces. This image was taken by Pierre Malychef in the late 1980s.

A barrel of methylene chloride, also called dichloromethane, a volatile, colorless liquid with a chloroform-like odor. Methylene chloride is used in various industrial processes, in many different industries including paint stripping, pharmaceutical manufacturing, paint remover manufacturing, and metal cleaning and degreasing. The most common means of exposure to methylene chloride is inhalation and skin exposure. It is considered to be a potential occupational carcinogen.
Produced by Comochem International, the Italian division of Morton Thiokol company. The Morton Thiokol Chemical Company was an American corporation founded in 1929. It was concerned initially with rubber and related chemicals, and later with rocket and missile propulsion systems. We wonder if the Thiokol Space Shuttle Challenger Disaster that befell in January 28, 1986 – despite prior warnings from engineers – could be in one way or another related to this waste. For more information, please refer to: https://onlineethics.org/cases/ethical-decisions-morton-thiokol-and-space-shuttle-challenger-disaster-introduction.
